Wow, that is horrible. Hope everything works out in the end even though it must suck pretty hard right now. At least no one was hurt.

So off that... I had to do this:
Now, now! No time for that... Although my Dad used to have a Ford with a utility bed, on 44" Ground Hawgs. After it caught fire for the third time, he sold it...
Don't know why he couldn't find the hood. I'm looking right at part of it over the passenger headlight...
It looks like the fire was worse over on the driver side. Kinda helps toward the brake pressure switch theory.
Either way, it is a darn shame. I'd be very sad if I lost my Chebby in such a way. I want to screw it up because I did something stupid, not a freaking switch!
Good luck with the insurance. Remember to never take the first offer, and get buy back rights!

Whhoooollllleee aluminum top of the engine was melted. (Think i have pictures somewhere) I grabbed a piece of aluminum in the shape of the spark plug hole which was pretty cool.
maybe you should get a new ford and replace the quarter panels and front end with your melted version.
it'd be pretty hilarious!
did you find out if insurance covers this?
ah, the infamous ford f150 fire. i think expeditions have that problem too. lots of issues with that happening in people's garages, good thing yours was on the street.
the hood melted because it is/was plastic.
