yep, just this past september. Me and my two sons throwing/stacking hay on a trailer pulled by my 2000 F250. Truck started smokin.. Youngest son (20 yearold) hops out and says trucks smokin.. I jump off trailer and the exhaust pipe behind motor is on fire.. then caught the ground on fire underneith.. at which I open the tool box on this truck to get the fire extinguisher that I carry.. wasnt there..young son runs to his truck which is parked aways in the field to get his..in the mean time my oldest is trying to unhook the trailer and Im grabbing gater aid, water jug, spit, what ever I could get and started throwing it at the fire.. young son shows up with his extinguisher and finishes the job.. thank goodness I taught them well to carry fire extinguishers. Went out that night and bought him a new one.. all these years I have always carried one until that day.. I had it out was trying figure how to mount on tractor.. The F250 blew the trans seal and dripped tranny fluid on exhaust which caught fire and dripped on the ground below.. Good news is no damage.. replaced seal with better one and ground only suffered about a 2' x 2' spot.. could have been worse..
