MY TRUCK CAUGHT ON FIRE. IT HAD NOT BEEN DRIVEN FOR ABOUT 24 HOURS BEFORE THE INCIDENT. I WENT OUT TO GET SOMETHING OUT OF MY TRUCK AND EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL. THIRTY MINUTES LATER WE HEARD A HORN BLARING OUTSIDE. WHEN MY WIFE LOOKED OUT THE WINDOW, SHE YELLED THAT OUR TRUCK WAS ON FIRE. THE FIRE DEPT GOT HERE WITHIN 5 MINS BY THEN THE HOOD HAD MELTED, THE BATTERY HAD EXPLODED, THE WINDSHIELD BLEW IN AND ONE TIRE HAD EXPLODED. THE FIRE APPEARED TO HAVE STARTED ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. SOMEWHERE NEAR THE FUSE BOX. THE FIRE DEPT COULD NOT DETERMINE THE EXACT CAUSE.*AK
