It was actually pretty funny. The pin somehow slid out before it hit my door. Scared the **** out of me and my friend. Still trying to get that **** out of everything.

That's OK as long as you are not pinned in the truck and its on fire. Better to have an extinguisher within reach inside the passenger compartment.

I can't remember the last time I was pinned in a vehicle that was on fire. Mind you, that's not to say it will never happen, but I prefer to think of mine as something that can be used for OTHER drivers, not myself.

15 SCAB 2 1/2 pound mounted to the front facing outside edge of of the box under back seat driver side, out of the way and out of sight with seat down yet easy access from out side without lifting seat + 2 1/2 pounder is much more capable than a 1 pound.

I agree with the last part ... and as someone that has put out 4 cars fires (one of which was my own) ... you don't think it will happen to you.

I know of many cases where people have been pinned in their vehicle. Having the extinguisher within reach so you can keep a potential fire at bay until the authorities arrive can make the difference between life and death.
