    That would be pretty cool - like crossed roasting sticks with flaming marshmallows on the ends or like a skull and cross bones where the skull is a flaming marshmallow and the cross bones are flaming logs or the sticks you use to roast marshmallows with

    At this point he’s going to have to start turning down all the offers of parts. That’s gonna be the hard part. Politely decline somebodies offer of free stuff? Do you sell it if you don’t need it? Or gift it to someone else in need? BJ Baldwin offered him Toyo tires but BF goodrich is already giving him some. I see two sets of rims and tires in his future. I would keep both.

    Devolro should just come through with one of their ridiculously priced trucks for him. :rofl::rofl:. Then he can get paid to drive into wildfires to rescue people.


    I’m in. Is he on here?

    Genius!

    When I first saw his photo he was at about 1300 followers on Instagram. 4 hours later he was pushing 3500. Now he’s at 57.5k followers. Holy overwhelming. They’re saying one of the most if not the most destructive wildfires in state history though. I sent him a message for Burnt Marshmallow Edition logos. We’ll see if he gets back to me.

    Damn this guy is what we need more of in the world, awesome character! Toyota is also getting a lot of publicity out of this, Tundra sales just increase 10 fold. Everyone wins!

    “This bulldozer comes out of nowhere,” Pierce said, “and knocks that flaming truck next to me out of the way.”

    I had not read this in other reports. Who's this guy?

    Probably the fire-crew. When the fire originally broke out they ordered 5 bulldozers I think.

    F yea!!! That’s an awesome story!!!!
    I worked our property over on a D5 this year for many hours - they are amazing machines, and LOUD as F!!!! Your story totally makes sense that they heard it! Even with muffs on it was loud with the tracks “clink clink clink clink clink”
    My neighbors a mile away knew when I was working.

    Toyota stood up a few days ago and posted for him not to worry about replacing his truck...they are taking care of him with a new Tundra. I also believe the BF Goodrich promised to replace his tire upgrade. There's also supposed to be a go-fund-me to cover his other upgrades.

    Another suspension vendor is stepping up to cover his suspension lift (its in this thread). We are truly “home of the brave” and generous.
