    I be the driver of the truck will have some 'splainin to do when he talks to his underwriter.
    Im now E30less.

      Sounds like the truck driver's screwed.

          Fun fact: The bolts that hold the Veyron CF monocoque to the front/rear cost about 90$ a piece and there's 14 of them.
          The tires are hand made and cost about 4000$ a piece and last only about 14 minutes at full speed.

                  Michelin used aircraft tire techniques to make sure the tire was 100% sound and that no errors were made, which involves a lot of manual work.

                    Maybe if your E30 is worth 8 dollars.
