The story behind the song “Breakdown” happened on 1-75 near Atlanta. The brake drum on my semi-truck busted, and I was stuck on the shoulder of the highway. I called roadside assistant. It was simple case of removing the busted drum and replacing it with a new one. The mechanic they sent me was either inexperienced or a crook. As he turned a simple job into major repair. It took 9 hours, at $200 per hour to remove a brake drum and install the new one. total cost of repair bill $2790.00
