    Mark my word, this won't be the last one this year...Flying Peelot has 2 or 3 go up in flames every year. Just enough to remodel a couple on the insurance company's dime without a huge increase in premiums.

    I imagine at least half of these truck stop fires originated with a truck burning near the building or in the fuel pumps.

    Bad DPF systems, overworked inverters, and other assorted problems brought to the truck stop.
