"The trailer may have been too heavy"
I thought this was interesting from an RVer's point of view. Can't tell if it's a TT or a cargo trailer from the photo. Teton Pass is steep, with 11% grades in places, but I think I would have noticed...

Too heavy? No, I don't buy that.
Nope. Me either. No amount of stress an owner can put on an un-modified vehicle should ever result in a fire.
If anything, fail safe measures should shut down the event when excessive temps are present...like the Ecoboost motors and most (if not all current) diesel engines.
At the very least, if the driver didnt have any idiot lights flashing or red-lined gauges, the failure and resulting fire was beyond the drivers control.
