You're going to feel bad when I pass out from heat exhaustion, Pat. You can mow my lawn for me after you visit me in the hospital.

I guess the guy had finished it THAT DAY, but I guess he also drives a lifted Ford FX4 for a DD.

he'll fix it back up.

Yup - it wasn't totally destroyed, just the timing of the fire is what really hurt. Finished it that day and to have it go up in flames...ugh.

I've seen it happen more times than any, I blame it on the moment, once it's done, you just wanna drive it, you forget how important it is to let it idle for a few hours first, to check all the lines and such.

I hope not either, btw, I was in Dallas once for a 36hr restart (I was a CDL Driver at the time) and at 3am, had to use the restroom, left the truck nice and cool, didnt even close the door yet and I was soaked from head to toe in sweat and pure humidity, got back to the truck and checked my Tri-Pack thermometer, and it was 103* at 3am.......stupid
