Rita: The traffic was ok because I always leave VV before it really picks up. However, about 20 miles outside of Vegas, a semi lost the tread on one of his tires right in front of me and I couldn’t avoid hitting a huge piece. It took out most of the front end of my car – the decorative stuff, no problems with the engine, radiator or fluids. I took it over to a Toyota dealer in Vegas, and they took off all the stuff that was loose or flapping and I can drive it back to CA, but it will probably be a couple of thousand dollars to fix (yes, I’ve filed an insurance claim). Scary stuff! I had the cat with me, and he was so cool and unperturbed he was a calming influence in a near-panic situation.
