That's the #1 cause of MH fires, but this looks like a gasser to me, not a DP. The "burn through" area is where the rear window was. I'm not convinced this wasn't started in the toad. The back of the MH is scorched and the whole front clip of the toad is gone with at least one front flat tire (melted?). It's a Jeep; not sure what model, so maybe a different outcome of leaving it in gear while towing?

Definitely NOT a fridge fire.
