Six brand-new Acuras are toast after the car carrier hauling them to Denver went up in flames on Interstate 40.

DPS officers say bearings in the trailer’s rear axle overheated and seized yesterday, sparking the blaze on an open stretch of highway about 25 miles east of Flagstaff.

The driver of the big-rig was able to disconnect his tractor from the blazing trailer and it was not damaged.
