Thank God nothing worse happened Ron. Thanks for sharing this. Your pictures help one better understand more of the expected when such an occurrence happens. I have had this happen on big trucks before but been pretty lucky with the coach (only rears a couple of times). As you stated its a quick way to spend a "G Spot". Just like independent truckers should be doing, have that rainy day fund. I know this doesn't matter much for the deep pocket boys, but just a thought.

Ron, do you have an idea at that speed how many feet it might have taken you to get the beautiful beast stopped? Did you really have to hang on or was it fairly easy to control?

Thanks so much for sharing the pictures.
