What owners wrote

The truck was parked in my home driveway monday afternoon. It was locked. On wednesday 2/24/21 our neighbor alerted my wife that there was smoke coming from the truck. We ran out there, but it was already heavily smoking and we could hear crackling and popping noises. Shortly after the truck was in flames. The fire department arrived, put out the flames. The fire marshal did an inspection and indicated it was likely an electrical fire near the tailgate/hitch/license plate.
