That's also my point. If they gave the details, it would subtract from the impact of thier story. Yes; a small isolated garage holding a pickup truck with hoses, a water tank, and a pump for a volunteer fire department would be fatal details for the story.

And; I am lazy too, but I'm also curious.
Here's some stats
