Silverad0 SS Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 and this also makes me think that running a mechanical fuel gauge in the cab is a bad idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2001silverado364 Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 I will be putting my fire extinguisher in my truck immediately after seeing this. Exactly what I was thinking, even without having a blower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatTallCanadian Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Wowwwww theres nothing left Glad you and the family are safe, and you've already got a sexy replacement! I am very tempted to now get a fire extinguisher as well, but with a problem like you had, I wonder if it would have even helped? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hondaeater Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Were you able to salvage the block at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krambo Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Terrible man. Toys can be replaced, and I am sure you will find something to fill the void. A fire scares the crap out of me. I commute 150 miles a day and see a couple of car fires a month. Sometimes a fire extinguisher isn't enough...if conditions are right, its going to go up FAST. In hind sight, count your blessings, everyone is safe and sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2bfast Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Were you able to salvage the block at all? wtf? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Bag Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Glad to see you got a new one as well. I'm on my 3rd truck since 06. A loss is a loss either way, stolen, burnt, whatever so I know how you feel. Start over with this one, take what you've learned the 1st time and from your dad and build another one and come back stronger, more bad ass than before. That's all we can do when shite happens. What is irreplaceable is family and yours and their health. So I'm glad you are alright Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
