A car carrier lost its load of vehicles Friday morning and is currently blocking both lanes of Route 7, Vermont State Police said.
First responders from Williston, the DMV and Charlotte Fire were en route just before 10 a.m. to the area of Wildwood Road in Charlotte.
State police advised drivers to drivers seek alternate routes and avoid the area.

Lots of dealerships along route 7. I wonder which one this truck was going to.

Dealers Row, as it’s known.
I’ve been scouring for pictures, nothing yet.

my GF is subscribed to the VT ST Police/DMV Travel Advisory facebook feed, they usually have pictures of the accidents like this... I’ll ask her to look

I got pics from WCAX via DMV:
that carrier was headed to The Automaster...
BMWs (looks like all X3s and X1s?) and MINIs

Automaster?
Good to know not a single manual transmission was lost in that spill.

I don’t know, there’s a mini in there... it’s *POSSIBLE* that it’s a stick... of course it’s still on the truck.

I am honestly shocked that their online inventory says 7 manual minis in stock. 7!
Let’s check the others.......
BMW : 1
Honda : 3 (1 civic, 2 fits)
Mercedes : LOL

I am very sad that my next new vehicle purchase will be an automatic... we need a truck and the Tacoma/Colorado don’t have high enough tow capacity, but at the same time we can’t justify a Ram 2500 Cummins (still available with 6-speed stick!)... probably gonna be a Ram 1500 Ecodiesel. At least the 8-speed is pretty good :/
(this is how we want it...)

That is a shame, but a very nice looking truck!
*checks calendar* Shouldn’t you be crapping on your boss’ desk about now?

also: surprisingly close in price.... well closer than I figured anyway... nearly $10K extra to get a stick (plus a truck thats *WAY* overkill for our needs) is kinda silly.
