They know when a rife starts and if they so chose they could put it out in a heart beat plain and simple.
No I don't need to "Shake my head".
It would help if you figured out how to comment on a post, yours is a real mess to read. YOU are commenting under Grit's name. Grit I think you should file some sort of a Internet Claim against this person.....
The major insurance companies like State Farm have cancelled all new home owner insurance business in the state of California due to wild fires and some other problems specific to California. I can't imagine anyone wanting to move to California.

I really like the Hemi. Have owned many, currently have one in my Grand Cherokee L. But if the Hurricane was available in the GCL I’d choose it over the Hemi. The driving characteristics of forced induction are just better in my opinion.
But the MPG is not. What does the Hurricane in the Wagoneer/Grand Wagoneer get, 1 MPG better than the Hemi?
If Chrysler wants to get away from the fines, they will need to do more than transition from the Hemi
And to the comment about the Tesla displacing whatever Toyota as “best selling car”, their sales are still a fraction of what any of the Big 3 sell in trucks…..

I can't tell if you are serious, with the smiley face at the end of the sentence.
Your link is about a train out of China. China. Are you seriously using China as an example of saving the environment??

Actually, it's the opposite. They attack them immediately, putting them out before they can burn the fuel that has accumulated, leaving even more fuel for next time.
The reason the ones in Quebec are so out of control is because they are in remote areas that are inaccessible, and dumping water on them from airplanes is equvalent to pi$$ing in the ocean. They have to burn themselves out.
If the greenies would let the loggers in to clean the place up every 10 or 20 years there wouldn't be any fuel for the forest fires.

Back in April I drove a GC Summit with a Hemi rental and swore the engine would rattle a bit when cold started in ~60 weather in Ohio. Was not overally impressed with it so yes I would also prefer a boosted I6 engine. Another thing I didn't like was the leather liner on the dash board was rinkled and pealing off the dash.

In NW WA they used to maintain the Forest Service Roads. Now they want to spend on Light Rail instead.
I have seen plenty fires they simply don't hit hard with chemicals right away. OH, that may be a no no with the greenies.

Hey it’s his story, he can embellish all he wants….
Although can dashes crack from looking at ugly people or something? Cause I’ve had a buncha Dodge/Chrysler vehicles . Not all new ones either. There’s a 24 year old Dodge in the driveway now.
Common theme w me, never had a cracked (or wrinkled/peeling whatevs) dash on any of them.
Common theme with Fish, complain about the dashboards in all Chrysler products….
