Standing ovation to Toyota, who has seen what (please remain standing for a 2nd ovation for: ) a hero with a Toyota can do, and who burned up his Tundra being a nurse in the midst of the Paradise Ca fire, and has reached out to him and offered a new replacement!


A nurse has emerged as one of the heroes of the disaster, driving into the flames to evacuate patients from the intensive care unit he manages. While he made it out alive, his Toyota Tundra didn’t fare so well. Once Toyota found out about the nurse’s heroic deeds, the company offered to replace his Tundra.

The nurse, whose name is Allyn Pierce, posted a picture of the fire-damaged Tundra on social media. In the post, he said “this truck literally saved my life today.” In response, Toyota said, “We are humbled you’d risk your life and Toyota Tundra to drive people to safety. Don’t worry about your truck, we’re honored to get you a new one!”

Allyn Pierce bravely battled the flames not once, but twice, as he drove through the fire to ferry people to safety. At one point, the Tundra became stuck in gridlock traffic... thankfully a dozer came to the rescue and pushed the dead cars aside freeing Pierce to head back into the fires to help some more
