Read on one of my diesel websites that with the skyrocketing of diesel prices and the LOW demand for trucks, and the closer of some of the truck plants that its not looking too good for the 4.5 Dmax, I hope they are wrong.

That is devastating. I can't believe the damage. That was one amazing build. Soo glad you and your loved ones are ok. Cant' wait to see the next build! Is it going to be ready for the LSX Truck shootout in October?
By the way I have not seen anywhere what was the cause of the fire?

Mark, I don't know you but I have been lurking and I am a fan. It is a shame for a man to have such bad luck. Keep that chin up. Glad to hear that what is most important is okay and for what it's worth congrats on a great build. My deepest sympathy goes to you and yours. As to how I feel,
