What owners wrote

1995 ford f-150 pickup caught fire. The vehicle had not been driven for a full day and a half and the engine was cold. The truck was completely engulfed in flames when we found it about 6:45 pm. Fire caused damage to the house and a saturn sedan parked next to it in the driveway. My husband collapsed and suffered a fatal heart attack while trying to put out flames. My son in law helped save the house from burning down until the fire department, police and emt's arrived.
