Damn man......the correct fire extinguisher could have saved that truck. There are different types of extinguishers and one that's for chemicals would have stopped that fire.

If everyone who veiws this vid would equip their rig with a fire extinguisher maybe we could avoid this p00!!! That Sucks that all those people just stood there, apperently they didn't know where to find an extinguisher.

x2, How many fires does it take for people to learn, The only truck in my driveway that doesn't have an extinguisher is my DD, All of my work trucks have them, my hotrod, my bogger, And my barn has them at every corner. I even bring extras to bogs because some people are to stupid too! I guess these people have full coverage on their boggers. If you see my truck at a bog and something is on fire, run my way I will always have an extinguisher.

 A  ABC rated extinguisher would have put that out quick if was applied correctly. Its one thing to have it but if you don't know how to use it whats the point. What you dont want is to breath that smoke its highly toxic. In the end it was just a truck and no one got hurt or killed. You can get a truck alot easier then new skin and lungs. It sucks but its not worth your life. Cars and trucks burn every day. Thats why they make more...
