Of course, many of us have seen those videos and pictures where if the owner of that car had a fire extinguisher on hand, he/she could have saved his/hers car. Thus, it is a good precaution to carry a "small" fire extinguisher to help with any unwanted smoky situations.
3 Questions: 1.) What types of fire extinguisher do you guys carry around? type A,B,C,D etc.. 2.) What make did you buy? And why that maker... 3.) What size did you get? ...probably "overplaying" choosing one, but seems like a delicate situation. Thanks- -------------------- Past: V6 Swapped 6G Celica, E46 BMW M3, Jeep Wrangler TJ
