Don't worry about me. I'm ok. Cars can be replaced.

I haven't been replying because I have been discussing things with my Family, taking care of the necessary paperwork, dealing with the local Authorities, etc. I'm trying to get everything in order right now, and the internet isn't my greatest priority.

I'm apologize for the lack of replies.


I'm sorry, but if it wasn't your "greatest priority", then what was the point of all the unneeded drama?  If you had other things to deal with, why make the initial post(s) in the first place?

It sounds like no one was hurt, which is good.

However, you pretty much lost all sympathy from me by pulling your little attention-grabbing stunt.

I sure wish we knew how the car caught fire. I just installed that 3g in my T-Bird. Just saying it caught fire then nothing kinda leaves a void.... yay..... Sorry your car caught fire, could you take a few minutes and tell us why?

So is he trying to sue you guys for telling him not to upgrade the factory alternator wiring(which is required by the way as the wiring usual caught fire with the stock 75amp alt)If so that's kinda messed.
What kind of legal action would he have against ford or anyone else on a 20yr old car?????

I noticed the drama queen hung out on the board for several hours yesterday/last night but failed to give anyone an update.

i still dont understand the "legal" perspective.  Im not sure what is up with that, certainly cant have anything to do with this 3g stuff cause i dont see it being the root problem.

Maybe he means something else unrelated to cars.

All the legal paperwork pertains to the damage done to the vehicle itself. Insurance, police report, etc. I'm not suing anyone.

I never asked for, nor wanted YOUR sympathy.

Was I required to?

I think Chuck is saying that if you were so upset over it you would be likely to give an update instead of just hang around.  Seems a little out of place is all.

Ok, look....

Yes, my actions have been a little erratic and irrational over the past 24 hours, but If you were to wake up and find your car smoldering, I think you would be a little freaked out too.

I apologize for the drama. It won't happen again.

Any cause to the fire yet?

It appears to have initially started at the Regulator Connector, and spread from there.

Whatever...

You come in here, stir up drama and leave it.  Then you're here the next day....on the board and there are obviously people who are at least concerned if things are ok, and you don't add anything.

Personally any more I don't care.  As long as no one was hurt, then that's all I care about.

Other than that I am done with you and you will probably be the first person I have ever put on "Ignore".
