Thankfully no one was hurt, what a blessing!!! Sorry for the fire but a coach can always be replaced.

Several years ago I was living full time in a beautiful campground, couple pulled up in a 45' DP, husband went in to pay for a site. Wife was in the coach alone, smelled smoke and got out to look around, rear of coach was starting to smoke with flames beginning to come out of engine compartment. Several people tried to use fire extinguishers with no luck, $800,000 coach burnt completely to the ground, nothing left but a melted pile of goo, ashes, and metal. Investigators said an engine oil line burst and sprayed on the exhaust causing the fire. Fortunately no one hurt but very scary!
