Default Got the Wife a replacement vehicle...

So after my wife's Sequoia burnt to the ground.... she wanted a Jeep.



She here it is.... and I can not tell you how tempted I was to pick up a case of Fire Extinguishers and zip tie them all over the roll-cage.





She already wants to increase the lift and put 35" tires on it... that woman is crazy


.... so why is this in "Bike Tech"???
.... because you can almost see one of the bikes in the first pic

The root cause is not known.
Pasco County Fire and State Farm both conducted investigations.
As of yet, we still do not know much more than it started in the dash.
When it happened, the vehicle was running and sitting in my driveway.
My wife started the vehicle, turned on the air, and went to get the kids a couple of doors down.
She turned around to see the vehicle on fire.
We do not smoke, nor was there any aftermarket alarms and / or stereo equipment.
