    Don't know yet, mechanics closed and I just told the tow truck driver to drop it off in the lot. Had the brakes done by the same mechanic about eight months ago.

    The truck is a 1998 V8 Dodge Dakota SLT 4x2 regular cab.
    No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

      Looks like I goofed, it was I-435, not I-70.

      Not sure if this will work:



      ...if it does, that's roughly where I lost my brakes; follow it around, and I ended up in the underpass, pretty much in the open spot between I435 North and South.

        Sounds like a quite an ordeal.

              It was too quick to be an ordeal, but thanks.

                        Initial look from the mechanic is that a steel brake line blew, from the brake fluid all over the ground. Apparently that kills the e-brake too.

                            Sounds pretty scary. Like bad dream scary.
                            Glad you're OK, man.

                                You mean the guy who thanked Sava for picking on my poor, under appreciated 18 year old truck?
