I spotted a dead excursion on the 5 today around 3pm today, stuck in the middle lanes. At least I think it was an excursion but maybe an F250 with a camper. Kind of sad to see it sitting there blocking traffic, I would have stopped to help had I been in my truck or I was driving. Just curious if it was anyone here and maybe what happened. Oh it was around Garfield exit near the 710 heading south.
That's a good thing cause you would of been holding up traffic for a few miles. It's got to suck to be stuck in the middle of the freeway. I always wonder how you get stuck dead center of the freeway.
Knock on wood, that's never happened to me. Like you though, I wonder how someone can get stuck smack dab in the middle of traffic like that - I mean, get the thing out of the road, you know?
Spotted another one this evening, a white F250 with a camper. It was on the transition from the 605s to the 91e. Looks like they were towing a small trailer. They had the truck loading onto a tow truck with the trailer unloaded and it looked like they had a friend ready to pick up the trailer in a chevy. Sucks to see all these trucks breaking down this weekend. I made a trip to pick up a friend that broke down at a track day event at Button Willow Raceway last weekend. Would have hated to have been me.
Probably out of fuel...it costs like an $150 bucks to fill those Excursions up..what a bum deal...and to push one..what do they weigh like 4500 pounds?

The gas part is right, I fill up my F250 with about $150. But the weight is way off, they have to weight somewhere around 8000lbs.
