This is stupid. The grass fire started the car fire, but the car fire burned the car down at car fire temps. Grass fire temps having nothing to do with it because the fuel souce changed from grass to car materials.

"A vehicle fire can generate heat upwards of 1,500 degrees Fahrenheit. Keep in mind that water boils at 212 degrees Fahrenheit and that most foods are cooked at temperatures of less than 500 degrees Fahrenheit. Flames from burning vehicles can often shoot out distances of 10 feet or more."THe fire would not be hot enough, focused enough, or burn long enough to explain the damage in the images.
