so its about 1am im hungry so i drive up to MC'ds to get somethin to eat its only about 3 miles from my house, truck ran fine the whole way up there, on the way back maybe a mile from the place the truck just wonr go anymore. Im giving it gas but the whole truck is shaking violently, drop it down to first gear nothin wont go, so I pull into a parking lot at this private bar. knock on the door say im having car trouble can I use the bathroom. no more then 60 second pass by I come outside to meet my ride and my work truck is completely up in fucking smoke!!!!!!! has this happened to anyone else? it was absoultely crazy, it was an 05 Silverado with 75k on it all highway miles. Anyone know what might of caused it?

I told you, you should have paid that hooker her damn 5 bucks. Now look at you, you have the Clap and a burned down truck. Sad.

Sorry to see that, I have nothing useful

**1MileCrash** · 03-01-2009, 07:43 PM

my 1985 chrylser lebaorn turbo convertible started itself on fire. no idea why...but it did. paid $1900 for it and got $2100 for it from insurance.

So is this a work truck that you arnt supposed to be driving on your off hours?

**Smkn_TA** · 03-01-2009, 10:37 PM

McDonalds at 1am, don't tell me dooby wasn't involved. I've been to taco bell at those hours, I know who is out.

**Sarge** · 03-02-2009, 03:33 AM

Smoking the weed ...a seed pops out...in the carpet it goes...voila....no truck....

That's what it sounds like -

Misuse of a company vehicle. What's worse is that he said it's a 'state' vehicle.

Not good.

Think of this........just to stir things up a little bit.......

It's after hours and this occurs........who has to pay for it?

And if Boner has to pay - I'd bet his personal insurance wouldn't cover it either....

uh oh!
