944 Stranded in Colorado Springs?
Anyone here stuck on I-25 in Colorado Springs this morning? Passed a cream colored 944 on the side of the highway about 7 AM, northbound. Wanted to stop to lend a hand, but morning traffic was heavy and still flowing pretty fast and I couldn't get over in time.

They're 20+ year old german cars. Could have been any one of us

I can't believe they use cable barriers (instead of Armco) along there, I'd like to see what happens when you hit them at 80.

I saw a WRX that skidded off I225 in Aurora and hit those. Pretty much tore the front end of the car off. Kept him from going into the northbound lanes tho.

The people who drive 80+ in that section (about a quarter of traffic) are the ones making a problem. With the number of trucks on that road and significant hills like near Monument, they need 3 lanes all the way into Denver.

it wasn't a question to the dude that broke down. it was a question to the people that read this thread. out of all the 944 break downs what is the most common? thats all i was implying. and yes when I'm driving 80 mph and start to overheat, i would think my head gasket was failing. if the car randomly shut off at 80 mph without over heating i would think, wtf, stupid dme/sensors.
