    I've put over 1,000,000 miles behind the wheel of this old girl.... feels like I lost an old friend.

    WOW!! That is alot of damage! Im guessing you cant put her back to pristine condition, lol. Do you htink it was arson? or just some random fire?

    Damn man, that's rough. Normally I'd ask about an engine block heater, but it's summer. Fuel pump burn out? Had it been running recently?

    At least the tanks didn't go and take the trailer with it.

    Sorry bud. That's rough. But at least you weren't in it when it decided to catch fire. Good luck, and I hope you get back to haulin soon.

    On a bright note the Sunsport wasn't parked next to it. Worst thing is trying to find another all mechanicial diesel to replace the truck.

    At over a million on her she was getting a bit long in the tooth doesn't make it any easier to loose.
    Hope you get back out there soon
