It was quite the scene near 75 and El Dorado in McKinney Saturday afternoon, after an 18-wheeler caught on fire while racing down the highway.

This wasn't just any ol' 18-wheeler, though, and it may have caused the best-smelling vehicle fire known to man.


Passersby couldn't help but rubberneck, and probably rubbernose, at the site they were smelling through Collin County.

According to this video of the incident, a flat tire started dragging and caught fire, eventually spreading to the entire truck.

By the time firefighters could get to it, the truck was fully engulfed in flames.
