    A little background.........I love those little peppermint candies, and my Wife makes sure that my center console is propperly stocked with them all the time. She puts them under the power ports.............
    So, Im running my errands this morning, and some time durring my little trip, my Bic lighter slides off the seat and under it. I realize that I have a cig. lighter in my truck. I have never used it in the 19 months I have had this truck. SO, I push it in, waiting.......waiting...........wait.....POP! It shoots out of the socket and falls right into the mints wich promptly catch on FIRE! :eek: Being the prioritizer that I am, I quickly lit my stogey, then dumped my water bottle on the flames. Truck seems fine, but I lost a dozen or so mints to the blaze. :(

    Just thought I would warn those fellow TW'ers that like an occasional smoke while driveing to not carry flamables (who would have thought those mints would go up in flames so quickly?) under the lighter, and to COVER THAT DAM THING IT CASE IT POPS OUT!


    That is all........:)

    Not that I can tell. Truck has that sweet "Burnt plastic" smell now. :eek:

    Thats why I have Wet Okole seat covers. :cool: LOL
    Now that I know it will LAUNCH out of its holder, I have put the cig lighter in a safer place......My trash can. :D

    #235 is when driveing with a friend and you rear end another car, your cig. will drop into your shorts, thus burning your ass. Yes it happened to me and the insurance co. gave me $100.00. :)

    Eh, just start late. If you start in your 40's you'll be like 85 when you have to start worrying about cancer. By then, who cares.:)
