QUOTE(iamchappy @ Aug 3 2009, 12:22 PM)  I have a total of six nozzles on my system - 4 on top - 2 below all are pointing at the stuff i worry about. I went with the big bottle that can support this many nozzles, weight wasn't a concern. I have first hand experience in car fires, pictures from last years hunting trip. Let me guess, exhaust from one truck cought grass on fire and took the other two with it? BTDT also. Watch a friends New 88 F150 4x4 go up in flames because the BroncoII a few feet away parked in tall very dry grass / weeds. Grass bust in flames from heat from the CAT I think. We were 3/4 mile a waywhen we smelled smoke and no one had a way to put it out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |
