Couldn’t grab a pick, but just passed a JL burning to the ground on the side of the road on 295 in Jacksonville. It’s crispy now. I think we can probably assume it was a 2.0....

I can see what looks like the BLACK SIDE VENT-JL, BUT

This problem isn't new to jeeps--there were a bunch of JKs lost to fires, either 42rle auto oil "BURPED" out of the dipstick and spraying the passenger side exhaust manifold---or

Off-roading in dry grass and getting the grass stuck in the skid plates and ignited by the CATALITIC CONVERTER-

It's very obvious--4-wheeling IN A JEEP is dangerous, so I'd advise all of you to think twice, before you push your start button and disable the ESS !

What is a Threadkiller?

A Threadkiller is a top-level comment that provides just about every answer to the thread's original question: An answer so comprehensive that it quite literally kills the Reddit thread. These almost always take the form of an extended list of answers, but there are exceptions. Here are good examples.Another good way to think about it is ask yourself "When I reach this comment in the thread, do I need to or feel the need to continue looking at other comments in the thread?" If your answer is no or maybe than it may be a threadkiller! If your submission does not fit the Threadkilling mold, it will be promptly removed. There's clearly some gray area on what is and is not a Threadkiller, but if you want to message the mods, we'll hear you out.

It's hard to tell in that pic but the cowl pieces and window frame sure look like JK to me.

That's a Polar Edition JK, you can tell by the emblem on the side and the hood decal (and hydro blue color). I had one.

Looks like a JK. Most likely, it was the oil filter housing issue, that was leaking, dripped on the hot manifold, and ignited.
