I usually carry a two litter bottle of water for drinking, or for someone's radiator if need be. I'd also use it for a fire if need be. If the water can't put the fire out, then go to the much more messy dry chemical.

BTW, have you noticed how many more roadside burn marks are out there since the advent of ethanol, which eats rubber parts. It disintegrated the rubber fuel connection from the tank to the steel line on my 1949 Chevy truck, and I lost a full tank of gas. It also ate the rubber fuel line to the carb on my Dodge Omni, and I had a small engine fire when the gas sprayed onto the hot exhaust.
