Nice shots of an M3 LTW in the Pacific Northwest, at speed and at rest.

I’m conisering Rubbermaid Brute or ActionPacker totes. I need something that can carry jack stands and spare rotors without splintering.
The guy in the Suburban and the guy in the auto hauler were playing chicken at 65 MPH on 101 northbound on Friday afternoon. Before these shots were taken, the auto hauler was swerving in traffic, causing other vehicles to take evasive action, with chain reaction evasive action. Shortly after that, once some of the nearby traffic cleared, it appeared that the Suburban brake-checked the truck. From my perspective I could see the semi lock up under emergency braking. The trailer left massive skid marks as it wagged and encroached on the adjacent lanes.
I followed them from about 3:00 to about 3:05 PM, from approx Fair Oaks Ave. in Sunnyvale to Shoreline Blvd in Mountain View.
Perhaps someone will recognize these images. The Suburban guy, if he did in fact brake-check the semi, has a death wish. The semi driver needs to find another line of work.
