No, it costs 1, just like the rules imply.

As far as I'm aware, it sure would.  A couple weeks ago one PC failed the
reliability for the air carriage she was driving ,rolled a Catastrophe
result for the malfunction, and then rolled the boiler for the location of
the malfunction.  A total of 5 wound levels was then rolled, and I decided
that the character had to take at least 1 wound level (you can't be in a
space enclosed that small and not get at least a little damage from an
explosion, after all), so he pitched in 2 reds to take it down from a
Maiming to a Light.

As for the horse, you may have a different edition, so I'm just going to let
that one pass to someone else.
