Ok so its not a wreck... yet. ;D This was parked outside of our crane yard this morning. Yes those beams are as warped as they look, I was told that they went back straight after it was unloaded. Heres a closer view of the warp: One more, this one is of the bolts holding the beams to the rear axle set:

I took these pictures in July on Hiway 97, southern Oregon. This hapless Freightliner was on fire as we approached, they had just closed the road to traffic, well before the fire trucks arrived. Note on the right side of the picture is a burning tire that blew itself off the truck. Think twice about approaching a burning vehicle! I don't know what started the fire, but it wasn't a collision. Dan The trailer was fully destroyed, I can't say for sure about the tractor.
