    Paint fumes are highly flammable.....just saying

    Does it strike anyone as odd that an RV in the body-paint shop would even have the fridge turned on?

    Lol, OK


    I see a huge difference between the speculation of a cub reporter and that of a fire marshal, et.al.

  • Reporter speculated. Text said cause was under investigation.
  • The news on-line paper stated Fresno, Californa... first paragraph:

    FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) --
    It was not Paul Evert's iconic signs but a solid orange wall of fire that beckoned drivers as they came down Highway 99.
  • Which one?

    There at several in different states.

    Sorry, I'm an actual traveling RVer currently located with a slow link connection from my phone. The page linked has too many embedded ads and videos to work on my current connection.

    The ammonia chemical in RV fridges is flammable. Heavy duty anti-freeze used in Diesel pusher RV's is flammable. Several posts and threads in the past about RV fridges catching fire. Several recalls.
