    Car Fires!

    Found this on somethingawful.com:



    Pretty funny article on all the forum members experiences with car fires/

    Can you figure out why the 2006 jetta just went up in flames?

    If anyone has a story about a car fire to share, or has pictures of some, post them here!

    Pretty funny, though I'd think that this has to go down as the funniest car fire I've ever seen a picture of.

    No longer stock ride height, rolling as low as a daily driver in New England should without worrying about breaking an oil pan. :up:

            Here's pictures of my eta that I blew up last September. I changed the FPR and started it, went to bed, got up, started it to go work, listened to it not run correctly, and then sat in it while it exploded. The neighbor helped me push it into the driveway while it was on fire. We managed to extinguish the flames just before the FD arrived. It was one of my bad days.

                    I saw one happen in a parking lot, thats about it. You probably know, but my buddy is training to be a fire fighter and said something like 95% of car fires will total a car. Which obviously isn't surprising at all.
