So I was greeted by the police and fire department at 5am calling me. The crew cab is a 2007 Silverado that had a fire start in the engine compartment somewhere and the wind took the fire to the other 2. I’m not posting this because I want everyone to know, I’m posting it because the picture the newspaper put on their website is hilarious… you’ll see why.

I lost 3 customer vehicles and a 2010 2500HD Silverado.

The passenger side of that 2010 Silverado is melted, you just can’t see it in that picture.

Glad nobody was hurt and you have a sense of humor about it. I guess as they say “that’s what insurance is for” right? 😉  
Where’s that cash 4 clunkers program when you need it. LOL

Ouch, hope insurance takes care of you. Was the Silverado a Duramax truck? That’s a whole big chunk of cash right there…

I could probably make use of the wheels/tires from the blue truck…depending on how badly the passenger wheels are damaged.

lol at the one-liners. I’ve been getting a steady flow of them since yesterday morning. The truck is totaled and will be sent back to GM. They usually will donate that tpe of vehicle to a technical school because the liability that goes along with re-selling something involved in a fire is too much, especially when it is a brand new vehicle.
