100 miles west of Des Moines , I heard a loud bang come from under the truck. I thought I might have hit a piece of tire. Stopped for fuel and after filling up, I see fuel leaking from underneath the truck. I pull into the restaurant parking lot across the street and look under the truck and the gas tank is hanging down ! The rear strap broke !. I used two ratchet straps to lift it as far up as I could. We shall press on , hope it holds.

Well, we’ve landed at a hotel, not the right hotel but we won’t talk about that !. The truck is running fine, meaning the fuel tank didn’t fall out on the highway. I’ve never been soooo ready for a drink than NOW!
