These types of fires can be particularly difficult to extinguish and can release toxic gases.<\/p>\n

County fire crews were able to get the blaze extinguished, though the amount of damage the vehicle and the dealership sustained is unknown at this time.<\/p>\n

The cause of the fire remains under investigation. No further details have been released.<\/p>\n
