Yes!!! It was the fabricated story about General Motors late 1970's pick-up trucks with their exploding "side-saddle" gasoline tanks that they added their own pirotechnics to enhance the sensationalism.
I own one of them 1976 GMC trucks and love it!!! CA's MTBE gasoline eating through the fuel lines was WAY MORE dangerous, thanks to the NRDC forcing the use of this poisonous to drinking water fuel additive!!!
