    I saw a tractor trailer fire today as well... About 1900 central time, I-80 westbound, MM 260 in Nebraska. I could see the HUGE plume of black smoke from about 10 miles away. When I got to it the entire reefer trailer was engulfed... I could feel the heat from the fire though my open window clear on the other side of the interstate while doing 65 mph. If I remember I will pull the footage from my dash cam and post a pic.

    P.S. that CRE trailer looks GOOD compared to the one I saw... If that tells you anything

    Gives new meaning to..."just burning my hours up.".

    I wonder if he could get a job as a chauffire if company...fires him.

    At lest he didn't get flamed for murder...

    He took dispatch seriously when they told him to fire it up.

    He went a step to fire in blazing down the road.

    He'll now be flameous, after the video goes viral.

    Company could change motto to.."We flame to please" "We take flame at the competition"

    Bad puns? check.

    Sirscrapntruckalot - Fire up your engines....no not literally...don't be the guy in the video.

    Noooo... that's not cool... :biggrin_25523: I hate soccer... and kids...? :biggrin_25512:
    I don't carry people... I carry "stuff".... that Toyota has some good cargo space... all the seats on the second and third row can be removed if I want... no bells and whistles like the SUVs I saw... but it's strong V-6 3.5L which is good enough for now... Will take my rusted Blazer to the body shop as soon as they can take it... I want to keep that baby... :yes2557:
