The Peruvian Border
Halfway between Guayaquil and The Peruvian Border, we hit a camoflagued Tope (speed bump) at full speed. This has been the worst thing for us, especially when our tanks are all TOTALLY topped off. Right away, we got the overwhelming of Biodiesel, and we were worried that we had busted our plastic 60 gallon tank. When we open the back of the truck we were literally hit by a flash flood of Biodiesel and plastic 5 gallon buckets. We were extremely lucky that it was only a 5 gallon tank that had ruptured! It was a bit of a mess, but definitely not worst case scenario.
