description: AFTER RETURNING FROM A DAY OF SHOPPING, I PARKED MY TRUCK AT THE BACK, LIKE ALWAYS. I HAD BEEN NOTICING OIL SPOTS FOR THE LAST FEW DAYS BUT CHALKED IT UP TO AGE AND MILEAGE OF THE TRUCK. AFTER ABOUT TWO HOURS I SAW SMOKE FROM THE BACK AREA WHERE I PARKED. I RAN OUTSIDE TO CATCH TO MY SURPRISE! MY TRUCK WAS ON FIRE, I AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE, GRABBED THE GARDEN HOSE AND PUT OUT THE FIRE! I REALIZED AS I LOOKED, THAT THE FIRE HAD STARTED AT THE AREA UNDER THE HOOD WHERE THE FUSES, AND WIRING WERE LOCATED. AS I SLOWLY REBUILT MY TRUCK, I REALIZED THAT THE FIRE WAS NOT THE ONLY PROBLEM THAT I HAD! THE FACT OF THE MATTER WAS THAT IF THE FIRE HAD NOT SHUT MY TRUCK DOWN, THERE WERE A WHOLE ARRAY OF OTHER PROBLEMS THAT I WOULD OF HAD TO REPAIR.
