Well, ours was the other day. You can check out some video and photos here (http://www.technomonkeymedia.com/truck/). My dad was driving up Mount Seymour to go skiing with my little sister's class. She was riding with someone else, and my dad was with a parent when he noticed there was smoke coming from the vehicle, and then the power died. So he got out and noticed it was on fire. They both grabbed everything inside and my dad filmed the ensuing fire. Quite an interesting film, really...

Anyways, we're fortunate that everyone is alright, and we've even managed to replace the suburban already. An interesting adventure...

That reminds me of the day a school bus caught on fire in our bus circle. Happy everyone got out safe, some cool videos though.

Damn... that was a nice truck! :moreconf:

I wonder if ICBC will argue that the truck is not a right-off and can be fixed. :p

Better yet! Here's the car they'll give you until you get your new one.

My dad works for BCAA. We had a rental truck for a few days, but we've already got a new truck. My dad's going to pick it up in a couple hours today, and then that's that. We're good. :D

I'm pretty sure it wasn't a pinto, Zin. I don't know many pintos that seat 8. :p
