    Thoughts on 8-10 year old Explorers

    Total bridge collapse in Baltimore...

    Total bridge collapse in Baltimore...

    Local news reporting that they're stopping tractor trailers that are going through the Fort McHenry and Harbor tunnels this morning for inspection. That's they're main alternate route.
