I don't know my Petes good enough to comment, but I do know that the guy that owned it is pretty knowledge-able. He is a current member on one of the newer truck boards I go to now and then.

I'm not real sure, but I believe there was only one or two trailers. Probably at least two, as one went over the cliff.

I would have to check into it to be sure.
