Default Built Ford Tough!

After a fire at the local Ford dealership this F-150 was started and driven off the pile of rubble left behind....

I love me some Ford....But I gotta say, That looked staged. It looked like the truck was in a car accident and was pried apart by the jaws of life and later put on top of a pile of rubble to be driven off of.....just my initial thoughts on it.

Actually no it was not. It was my town of Dauphin, Manitoba where this occurred. Not staged. The entire dealership burnt and was brought down to help contain the fire from what I understand.

The truck must have been nowhere near the part of the dealership that was burning. All the plastic and rubber bits on the truck are intact and unmelted. Look at the tires, sat antenna, plastic bed rail, etc.

My guess is that the entire roof came down, including the non-burnt area where this truck was parked. The roof (and wall) falling caused damage to the truck, but the truck has no actual fire damage.

I guess the water used to fight the fire could have washed away the soot that would have collected on this white truck.....

Guess: It was pushed there by a dozer, either when the building was knocked down or when the street was cleared.

In any case, it's a cool video.
