The tires didn't even pop. I would say that thing is A-OK to drive. Pretty sweet patina!
Tundra.
The professional's preference!
Very nice of Toyota to replace the truck. Great PR move.

This. Toyota will get a million dollars worth of feel-good exposure for the price of a Tundra. Smart move.
Some of these people truly have been through he[[ and lived.

It just became a collectible
Nice move by Toyota for owner and social media. Inexpensive media blip(likes, shares, news story etc) for them compared to conventional media methods. Social media win.
I am surprised the wiring did okay and it kept running/driving.

"Burnt Tundra"
Sounds like an oxymoron to me.

I would expect some credit given to the bulldozer operator here too but apparently not
Wonderful story of sacrifice, bravery and the human spirit amid that heart aching tragedy.
Good on Toyota for whom I'm sure their reward was sincere and spontaneous as any entity with a conscious would do. The PR fallout is nice but secondary. Not something to milk.

You know the internet, pics of a burnt bulldozer or it didn't happen! Maybe Caterpillar will give him a new one too if it got scorched.

Good on her.
Remember this one?
9/11 Silverado
Guy took the money from the adds and donated it to charity.
As I recall GM provided a new truck to him as well.
I would say the PR from something like this has to be balanced.

That'll buff right out.
God Bless all the responders who showed great courage
Guy has a pair of big steel ones to do what he did. Horrible situation, they're still finding remains.
