The vehicle looks like a customer's, attached to a trailer. Was the fire limited to those?

i know its hard to speculate not being there, but it looks like the problem might have started in the TV.

Looks like the trailer's propane tanks survived.

Could the TV have been a Ford? Ford is recommending owners of certain vehicles to park them outside due to incidents of fires starting.

Checked our local news again this morning. Here's a short update, but this is all I can find:
"Due to a vehicle fire in the parking lot, Seven Os RV way in Cicero will be closed until Monday. Please Text 315-687-7777 if you need to reach us.
Update:
There were no injuries. A customer’s new vehicle suffered a catastrophic failure of some sort that started the fire. The vehicle and their RV were a total loss. Thank you to the Cicero Fire Department for containing the fire as much as possible."
Some of the comments on Facebook indicate it was a FORD. I've no idea what model, but it looks like a large SUV?
