I-10 Travel Trailer on FIRE

That certainly ruined someone's holiday. Bummer.

Shouldn't the title be 'I-10 TRUCK on FIRE' :H

Agree. Appears to have started in the engine bay. Maybe a loose oil, or fuel line. And a friend of mine had the oil plug blow out of his Chevrolet truck. Appears the TT was just a victim of a burning truck.

My previous TT almost burned up. I turned on the A/C and smoke was pouring out of the wall around the thermostat. I ripped the thermostat off the wall and cut the wires. Nothing was wrong with the A/C or thermostat. It was bad wiring. Manufacturer made connections in the wall. twisted wires together. No wire nuts or any other insulation on connections. Just driving down rough roads apparently caused non insulated wires to come in contact. Manufacturer would not cover under warranty. Probably should have let it burn. TT was 2 months old. Sometimes you get a bad one.

Yikes!
It's not cold, so probably not the furnace.
Running a generator, maybe?
Bad wiring?

I talked to guy one time who told me they drove 6 hours with a roast in the oven...

Based on some other pics of the fire it seems to have started in the bed of the TV and then spread to the Puma TT. Also wondering what that's about.
