Buddy got stuck this after noon. While trying to get out he heated up the muffler which was now sitting on freshly bush hogged field and caught fire as I was hooking up to him. I yanked as hard as I could and got stuck my self. I looked back and saw the flames were as high as the truxk. I then unhooked from him and tried to get out with no luck. Fire department got there just in time to put out the flames around my jeep. 2 or 3 more minutes it would have been a 2 for 1 .

Ouch. I know two of my friends who have done that. I think they usually blame the transfer case though, rather than the muffler.

Ouch! You'd be surprised how fast a vehicle will become fully involved. Tractors too.

Holy sheet dude that's crazy

damn...... that sucks

where are the action photos!!

Its usually the catalytic converter that causes it .It reaches temps well over 1000 degrees .

^^Correct.

i also have 2 friends who have done the same thing... all fords... coincidence?

one of them burnt completely to the ground.. rims melted, everything... he had trouble proving to insurance that it was his truck, lol

Yank buddy from burning truck?
Or stop to take pics......decisions decisions

What kind and size tires were those?

Toyo open country 35s.

And no action shots were taken. While his truck was burning we were trying to save mine!

Glad ya'll made it out alright!

Yeah. Only mufflers on fords get hot.

I had a friend in high school whose Chevy S10 burnt to a crisp one night. Worst part was we were all out partying at a place and, his burning truck was blocking the ONLY exit...Easy ticket writing for the cops that night!:work::rotfl:

hahaha

I had a GMC one ton that the same thing happened too.

Didn't have cell phones back then. Saved my paw paws ice chest of beer and that was it lol.

I call that Jewish Lightning!

Would auto insurance cover something like that?
