Something straight out of a movie!

 

WOW! Makes you want a remote start! At least if you are transporting gas bottles.

 

I've had a tank leak in my work van. When you open the door and smell it it'll scare you good.

 

Lucky dude. If he had been much closer....doesn't bear thinking about. The overall structure of the cab seems to be pretty intact - one tough truck. Thanks Ford!!!

If you look at the second link, the force of the explosion can be seen - look at the garage doors. The cab structure survived!! These are tough and safe trucks.

Fun with Acetylene

 

wonder how that will work out in the ins. claim?

 

its totaled and they'll pay for it

 

I got that. But having the cylinder in the truck, come on that they can't cover that can they?

 

Plumber here. I've had my tank leak in the van too. I've got remote door locks. Better make sure that the tank is off EVERY time. Guess I've been lucky so far.
