Two holes in the block and oil everywhere. Of course I was in the passing lane when it happened. Drifted over to the shoulder
and sat for two hours waiting for a tow truck. The scary part was how many times tractor trailers almost hit me even though
I was off the road with my lights flashing. I don't know if the truckers were drunk, sleepy, not paying attention, or a
combination.
Holy carp,John! That's a bad day.

It's still under warranty but there's a process you have to go through. I'll know later this week what the
situation is. Fortunately I kept records of all maintenance.
