    Batteries Blew Up & Caused A Fire

    Update from pass couple of days. The claim adjuster said he would contact the department to have the labor cost decreased, this would cause the title to stay clean since it would be under the 75% total loss law in Louisiana. For the storage building, the owner doesn't have insurance for fire...

    Batteries Blew Up & Caused A Fire

    Yea I was mainly getting the insurance company involved to pay for the building damages and hopefully get enough to cover the cost for a tire and bed tarp. I'm going to think it over a bit.

    Batteries Blew Up & Caused A Fire

    Yea this is what I'm thinking about, I really don't see where in any shape or form the truck is a total loss, as for mechanical, I'll be surprised if the truck doesn't start like normal once I change the batteries. It seems like the only damage it really received is cosmetic, the cracked window...

    Batteries Blew Up & Caused A Fire

    Update: The adjuster said the damages on the vehicle exceeds the amount on the policy 10K. The problem is I don't know how its going to go with dealing with the titling, I told him I want to keep the vehicle but I'm worried about the issue with titling and getting a salvage title where I can't...

    Batteries Blew Up & Caused A Fire

    I had a battery maintainer hooked up to keep the batteries charged up and this cause the batteries to blow up and start a huge fire, from the looks of it, it damaged the side of the storage building, melted a lot of the rear tire up, and the truck took some damage to the tarp and window. I'm...
