i live in a apartment and the neighbor garage caught fire, when i saw the fire i had no time to go save my car. the fireman kill the fire before my side collapse, but not soon enough to save my car.

they're saying fire happen because some stupid kid was shooting firework. don't know who did it though. but went into my neighbor garage and he had alot alot of newspaper which set it off.

The good thing about that is you get to claim it against the apartment complex, since the fire was not your fault. Pls your comprehensive (if you have it) will be valid.

You "should" be able to show pictures and receipts and get reimbursed enough to replace the vehicle with like items.

i would go shoot that guy in the face. but since it is an apartment and his fault you will probabaly come out better than if it was your house or cause.

considering we are typing here with no facial expressions I don't mean that literally but its seems like the best way to describe the way I felt after seeing this without seeing my face and the numerous swears uttered thereafter

I'd be looking for my new, BETTER FD, and a new place to live. I'd also be thinking really hard about a creative way to remove the responsible party's *********, so that they could not reproduce and contaminate the rest of the world. Of course, the removal process would HAVE to involve fireworks in some way....


All joking aside, I'm sorry your car burned to the ground man. But you know what they say: "With adversity comes opportunity". Now might be a great time for that 20b buildup....

Thats crazy! I mean most people were probably thinking it was the car that caught on fire when they saw the post, but it was actually everything around the car. Bizarre.

Make sure to post pics of your new project

look at the silver lining. You'll probably get more from the insurance companies than you'd be able to get if you sold it. I sometimes wish mine would burn up. Either way, I'll never get back what I have in it.
