    Nothing is going to put out a tire fire other than copious amounts of water. I don't see too many hydrants out on the freeways, and the stuff in my tanker is never water.

    I made that mistake once, guys were hollerin' on the radio that someone needs extinguishers for a tire fire. So I stop and run across the highway with my extinguisher like a hero... what a big waste of time and waste of one good extinguisher...
