About to buy a couple extinguishers to have on-hand in case of a burning incident. Where have you guys stuck them?
Where are we mounting our fire extinguishers?

I use these in my vehicles and have one in the door pocket.

80% smaller & has 5x the discharge time of a traditional fire extinguisher. Makes no mess, requires no service and will not cause additional damage to any of your possessions.

@stubbs the brand f the bracket escapes me. They can be found by themselves to buy. I got it with the Element as a package.

When I had my 1984 BRONCO II 4WD I mounted it on the front humpwell on the passenger side.
A friend of mine would always laugh and kid me about it making silly/stupid remarks. Fast forward 3 months and I see he’s got a different vehicle. So I ask, “What happened?”
His vehicle caught fire and it was totally engulfed by the time the fire company got there. As he explained he stated that it started as a small fire. He tried to put it out by beating it with his jacket. Didn’t work and he lost a good jacket.

probably better off with a real extinguisher, just think for a moment a fire is hot right? that little stick has to be right up on it to "maybe" work.
with a extinguisher you can stand back a few feet and blast away with full trigger control.
the stick may work for certain situations but it's mostly a gimmick

Which brings up a broader question. What is everyone using for a fire extinguisher in their trucks?
I take one of these if we are going off road, but normally do not carry one around. I think harbor frieght carries some extinguishers, to me most of them seem pricey but probabaly worth there weight when needed
