DROVE FOR ABOUT 17 MILES AND PARKED AT A STORE. WITHIN 5 MINUTES OF PARKING THE TRUCK, WHITE SMOKE COULD BE SEEN COMING FROM THE HOOD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. AS I APPROACHED THE TRUCK FLAMES CAME OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD IN THE SAME AREA. GRABBED A FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND RETURNED WITHIN ONE MINUTE TO FIND ENTIRE ENGINE COMPARTMENT IN FLAMES. UNABLE TO OPEN THE HOOD SO THE FIRE EXTINGUISHER WAS NOT MUCH GOOD. FIRE DEPARTMENT ARRIVED WITHIN 5 MINUTES BUT IT WAS TOO LATE. INSURANCE COMPANY TOOK POSSESSION OF THE TRUCK AND TOTALED IT. UNKNOWN IF IT WAS EVER DETERMINED WHAT CAUSED THE FIRE. *BF UPDATED 7/26/18*JB
