Back in 2011, we had owned our new Cyclone just over a month. We were headed to Henderson's NCMP. Two lane road with light traffic.
I came over a hill about the same time an oncoming ambulance came over the hill ahead of us with lights and sirens going. Well, the minivan in front of us full of migrant workers didn't know what to do so they hit the brakes and pulled half way off the road. When I got on the brakes, this was the first time the Cyclone's brakes failed: 29,000 lbs. going downhill.
Will I swerve into the path of the ambulance to go around the minivan or do I just hit the minivan full of people? I floor the brakes on the F450 and they're doing all they can but again, we're going downhill with 29,000 lbs. and no camper brakes at all. By God's grace, I'm able to slow down enough to give the ambulance time to pass and I have just enough room to swerve around the minivan.
