Angry Broken Belt.....why?

Earlier this afternoon, i was gettin on an on ramp to the freeway, all of a sudden the belt just snapped, didnt mess anything up and had the truck checked out. Turned out fine, but still i hope that never happens again.

Year of your truck? Miles? Mods? Front or back belt?

New to me... haven't heard a L throwing a belt befor... At least it was the SC belt and not the accessory belt. Lets see if it will happen again.

Sucks driveing with a huge restriction in the intake doesn't it?
