It was on Donner pass downhill with their brakes on fire... Lived that nightmare...I remember going by Baxter many times wanting a cup of coffee but afraid the truck would burn to the ground while I was inside. The joke was: a kid comes into Baxter and walks up to a CF driver at the counter and says " Hey mister, you driving that CF truck outside?" And he puffs up his chest and says " Yeah little buddy. You want to climb up in there and honk the horn like a big-rigger?" And the kid says " No, I just wanted to tell you your truck was on fire"....I thought it was the CF lane
