The local newspaper indicated a possible electrical cause for the fire. The hot spot of the fire was on the passenger side of the engine compartment where the battery is located. Wrecker service carried the 'bird away. Not sure what will be done with it. I have photos of the engine compartment after the fire if anyone wants me to post one or two. The fire never went through the firewall but the water from the fire hose went through the drivers window. Probably a total? We are beginning to see more semi fires--insurance issues verses gas cost too much to stay in business?
