Glen Rock and Hawthorne firefighters teamed up to extinguish the fire off the corner of Grandview and Lincoln avenues near northbound Route 208 shortly after 11 a.m.
"The owner of the vehicle, a 60-year-old Oakland man, stated he had been driving on Route 208 when another motorist alerted him that his vehicle was smoking," Glen Rock Police Chief Dean Ackermann said. "He pulled off the highway and brought the vehicle safely to a stop and exited before the fire spread to the passenger compartment."
Hawthorne police assisted with traffic control.
A flatbed tow truck removed the charred Ford F-350.
