what fire extinguisher are you planning to get? I can't seem to find anything in between cheap-o dry chemical and $$$ for anything non-corrosive...

Im very sorry to hear about your car and feel your pain as I myself went through this just last year. It is a sick feeling for sure to watch as your car burns. Good luck with the repairs and hope you are back on the road soon!!!
