ransomnote: The first video was recorded outside the restricted zone. The video features a car on the shoulder of the road supposedly burned from the nearby grassfire (car is essentially melted except for steel frame - steering colum, steering wheel, glass etc.) with most of the terrain surrounding it intact. I put several still images taken from the video below for those who don't want to watch it.
Just a few notes:
Police forbid access to the fire locations and tell people outside the restricted zone not to take pictures (from roadside - facing into the zone).Near the bottom of this post I put the link to a second video taken inside the restricted zone. That video features 2 cars, essentially melted except for steel framing. They are surrounded by untouched property, houses etc.
(Note that the second video is linked near the bottom and images from the 2018 Paradise fire have been liked at the end of this post)
Internet searches indicate average temperature of grass fires ranges from around 300 degrees farenheit up to 700 degres Farenheit(F).
Automotive glass melts at 2552°F to 2912°F
Steel melts at 2700°F
Aluminum melts at 1220°F
Cast Iron melts at 2200°F

The police arrived at around the 23 minute mark and told the men to leave, talked with the men a little, and then escorting the walking men back to their cars by following in a patrol car. Two more patrol cars can be seen arriving in the background. At the 34 minute mark, the person featured in the video closes the recording with a prayer that the information reaches the public. He encourages people to help by donating to those impacted.

I agree with your sentiment. Not reigning in the nutjobs is making this site a wasteland.
There is nothing unusual about cars and trucks burning to a crisp like that. That isn’t an “official narrative”, that’s what happens. That’s all.
Straight jacket might be more appropriate.

The gasoline burns very hot.

Re: 97 - thanks for helping to bust the claims of conspiracy theorists.
All cars always burn at 1500F?
Would it depend on the make/model, what’s in the car,what started the fire, and ambient conditions?
Lotsa car fires from the BLM riots and in Paris, and I didn’t see solidified puddles of molten aluminum under them.
