Never a dull moment in a truck...

I almost let mine burn down.. and if it happens again I'll know for certain I am in the wrong industry, someone upstairs it trying to tell me something! LOL
 
A bunch of years ago one of our O/O's was pulling one of our old steel-wheel reefers and the hubs caught on fire for some reason. By the time he pulled over, the trailer's insulation had caught fire so there was no saving the trailer. He pulled his pin, didn't bother with the dolly legs or the hoses, and he pulled out and dropped the trailer to save his tractor.

The boss was teasing him, pretending to be mad because he didn't let his truck go down with the ship.
 
LOL, My truck caught fire one night , The one that the boss bought for me personally . The fuel line caught a leak and started a small fire that I put out. To save the 425 CAT . When the boss showed up he was like why didn't you just let it burn ? I got the impression the insurance money was worth more than the truck .
