Narrative

Driving east on I90 the Hyundai began to loose power going up Bozeman pass and burst into flames, smoke and flames shot foul from the car that came to rest on the shoulder. My friend and i were able to grab our dogs from the back seat get away from the car before it became engulfed in flames destroying the front half of the vehicle and the interior completely.
