Default Truck Fire

I am so upset. Today about 10 minutes after we got home doing some running. We hear someone pounding hard on our front door. I look out our front window to see our 2005 Ford F150 litterly up in smoke. I started screaming for my hubby. In a matter of minutes the truck was engulfed. Good thing is no one got hurt, But the nerves are shot.

Holy Cow! What started the fire? I'm glad to hear that no one was hurt.

No one knows what started it. The fire marshall said he thinks it started somewhere in the cab.

Yikes! That is absolutely crazy. That is one of those things that you just don't expect to happen. Maybe some faulty wiring? I hope that your insurance will foot the bill for a new truck. I'm very sorry to hear about your misfortune. I wish that there was something that we could do to help.

We had full coverage on the truck. We just have a 500 deductable on it. They said they would pay the loan off. We will still have to have a down payment on another truck.
