Luxery Performance Raptor Gone up in Smoke?

Didn't even see that... I "work" once and a while.

Sorry to all those involved that I said "Don't make assumptions" and even stated that I wasn't there. I know, a terrible thing to say.

Glad it's all straight now, so you can get back to... well, whatever it is you do.

I don't do anything. I have been blessed with the ability to grow money on a tree in my backyard.

Feel free to talk about everything here Matt. That's what the forum is for. This was a thread started by someone asking a question. It's not a build thread so anything goes. I don't need to discuss this with you over PM. I'm sure the reason you want to discuss this over PM is so I stop calling you out in public.

One word...shock.

Sorry to see that, very glad everyone got clear of it. That was the most impressive Raptor build I'd seen. Hope you do another.

Jeez, how about one of you that were there explain in more detail what, where, when did this happen.

Truck, supercharger, fire, engine, engine compartment, tried to put out, unsuccessful, truck burns down.

Well.. there ya go.

Agreed...it would be nice to get some actual accounts of what happened, thus we are left to speculate...

It appears no one was hurt, which is great.

My thoughts go directly to other SC trucks and how to prevent this from EVER happening again...

Thanks Gents...

Sell it on EBAY, and get another non supercharged Raptor!

As sad as this is, I am amazed at the level of damage vehicle fires cause. I would think with the amount of extreamly flamable fluids in a vehicle, that the material would be a little better suited for fire suppression. I too would like to know how many if any fire extinguishers were used to try to combat the fire. At least I'll know if its worth putting one or two in my truck.

With a big fat disclaimer....

I would think that due to insurance and other potential issues, those present might not want to say something that could effect any positive outcome for the owner on a public forum....
