Nacho Problem Anymore: Buddy’s Pulls Frito Lay Truck Back from Highway 199 Cliff

If you’re like us, you’ve been wondering if the snack truck that went off the bank along State Route 199 at mile marker 8 on Tuesday was recovered from that steep canyon. We can now assure you that yes it was, the Frito Lay truck was pulled back up on Wednesday, thanks to a coordinated recovery effort.

Buddy’s Auto Center towing managed to bring the truck back with what they described as “very minimal environmental impact.” A Buddy’s driver who helped with the recovery shared a photo of the scene with us and said permission was given by both Frito Lay and Buddy’s to post it.

The driver escaped with minor injuries from the crash, which happened around 12:14 p.m. on August 26. The truck’s recovery stretched over several days.

With the truck now recovered, we can relax knowing the Smith River won’t be doubling as a dip.
