Thank you guys for the support. It's just another setback for the ol 2015 year. The shop caught on fire some how early sat. Morning. Everything is a loss. Yall know how it is in this hobby/sport we love trying to gather up tools and supplies to work on or much less build a rig ground up. It's all insured but not sure if it's enoough, the blue truck was only covered for book value, which is around 5k less than what is worth. We will find out next week what to do.
If you get a chance, thank a volunteer firefighter. They were here at 7 am the day after Christmas ready to go. They were awesome.
Otherwise we are ok. The family is intact and the house didn't get damaged.

Man that's a tough break the day after Christmas. It's got to make you stop and be greatful the house or nobody was hurt. Keeps us updated.

We lost our home in January to a fire and basically lost eveything , I know the feeling keep your head up, my shop is my livelyhood! You will bounce back and learn how awesome people really are , if there's a silver lining in this it is just that ! So many strangers reached out and helped us when we needed it and in hind sight it was Amazing and awesome to see that there still are some great people ! Maybe is Hardliners can help ya out when you get a new shop with some tools or what not.

Hate to hear about your loss. Bad luck seems to run together sometimes. Everything seems to hit at once then it runs smooth for awhile. Good luck!

Hard to see that beautiful square body destroyed :'(

Re:

Fawk man that sucks!! Insurance is pretty good to deal with on something like this, our shop burnt several years ago and the replaced about everything. Glad you and yours are safe, everything else can be replaced.

Unfortunately anything inside the garage with a title has to have its own policy otherwise it's not covered.

whiskeymakin · Dec 28, 2015

Thanks for the comments guys. I'm mostly worried about the mule now. They say it needed it's own policy because it's a "recreational vehicle" I say bullshit. A mule is as far from a rec. Vehicle as it can get....now a rzr yes I get that, this thing is used for yard and hauling stuff around only. I was under the impression it's covered the same as my yanmar tractor, as long as it's under roof it's good. We will find out, but for you guys that don't have coverage on your utility vehicles, you might want to ask your agent to be safe

pholmann · Dec 28, 2015

I'm surprised they are covering your tractor honestly. Insurance is nice to have when you need it but they will find any loophole to bend you over every chance they get. I had a tree fall on my house a couple years ago. Some branches landed on the wife's new car and put some small dents in her hood. They wouldn't cover it without filing it against the policy on the car as well. That would have been another 1000$ deductible. They are crooked bastards.

The tractor is fine, it's in another building behind the house. My argument is that I was informed my tractor would be covered because it's considered for yard use/maintenance....the same way I use the mule. It's never left my yard.
