A pop and a stop

So, we had a great morning getting up and last minute things wrapped up. We got hitched up in less than 30 minutes. So with a smile we drove away. Things were going just fine when, as we were passing a semi truck, we heard a loud pop and the truck shuddered. The engine light came on and we suddenly lost the majority of our power. Luckily we were just a few miles from Guthrie and a GMC dealership. So now we are sitting here with the cats in the lobby waiting to hear the verdict. According to Internet searches it sounds like it might be the inter cooler hose. Hopefully it is something simple that can be fixed today! I was prepared for a lot of wacky things to happen on our trip, but a problem with our brand new truck was not one of them. I will update when we get more information.
