## Narrative
I was driving regularly down the road when I noticed the smell of electrical fire.  Smoke started coming from the undercarriage of the truck.  I pulled into a gas station, and the engine died,  and I got out to look at what's causing the smoke. I observed what looked to be engine or transmission oil on fire dripping from the undercarriage, so I moved a safe distance from the vehicle, and within about 30 seconds,  the entire vehicle was engulfed in flames.  The fire department came,  and extinguished the fire.  The vehicle is 100% casualty, along with everything inside of it.
