TRUCK WAS PARKED IN BACK OF MY DRIVEWAY AND HAD BEEN THERE FOR TWO WEEKS. THE TRUCK SPONTANEOUSLY CAUGHT ON FIRE. A NEIGHBOR CALLED ME AT 3 AM OR SO TO TELL ME MY TRUCK WAS ON FIRE AND BY THE TIME I WENT TO GO OUT WITH A FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND TRY TO PUT IT OUT THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND THE CAB WERE FULLY ON FIRE. MY FIRE EXTINGUISHER DID NO GOOD FIGHTING THIS FIRE. THE FIRE DEPT PULLED UP BECAUSE MY WIFE HAD CALLED THEM AND THEY TOOK 20 MIN TO PUT THE FIRE OUT. THE TIRES WERE PARTLY MELTED THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND CAB ARE GONE(BURNED) AND THE BACK OF THE TRUCK BED IS NOT TOUCHED OR EVEN THE PAINT BURNT OFF. *TR
