Let's hope he had someone who could fix the truck and get him down the road more than 10 miles.
Also when I was filling up with Diesel at the Shell station off of I10 Christmas Eve I stood there and watched a guy with a 05 RAM Cummins in the parking lot spewing antifreeze on the drivers side like crazy with the engine running. As I left I pulled up to the guy with his engine still running :S and asked if he needed to arrange a tow to the RAM shop in the area. He wasn't a happy camper to say the least and nodded no. It's unfortunate when a failure happens on the road especially on Christmas Eve, but this guy just letting his engine run while coolant was spilling out will probably be replacing a head gasket in the near future. :S Just another reason I don't buy used vehicles. :W
