    Since when does chrome=WT? I always associated Rust n Primer as WT. Chrome, especially plastic-y chrome always made me think more... Ummm... (Puts on politically correct voice) "Latin influence"?

    Ya I'm with ya pretty positive it's not either, I was just looking at the pics. Looks like the one you saw has manual hubs and the other truck looks like it doesn't. The bedliner on the truck you saw has the liner on top of the driver side bed rail, baby's truck looks like it doesn't have it on the rails just the tailgate. Baby's truck looks like it has chrome mirrors, this other truck has black ones.

    Just trying to help.

    Thanks,

    Brett

    Yes....my wife, baby, and I lost our home. We were one of the first houses lost on the ridge. Actually my landlord is Martha Karsten the fire chief. We've lost 24 houses and 800+ acres.

    Agreed! Family and Pets come first. Sorry to hear about the house...if you guys need clothes/bedding/some basic stuff let me know, I'm sure I have spares of most stuff. I have had numerous friends lose homes to fire, its horrible but stuff can be replaced...people cant

    Thanks for all the support. Life in general can be pretty crazy at times. Life on the Big Sur coast is crazy most of the time. The tragic part is all of this could have been avoided if it wasn't for a careless camper on the trail. 24 homes lost so far. Most people only had time to get out the door. One of my neighbors drove his Audi down the ridge with the back end on fire. The local citizens saved 9 houses in the last 3 days. Not to bad for a bunch of yahoos.
    Out of the ashes we will rise!

    Big Sur is probably one of the coolest places. And I think you're right when you say they'll rise from the ashes. Resourcefulness comes from the rugged coastal living.

    Just sucks.
