    $200k sounds like a lie. So somebody is also probably inflating their loss which is insurance fraud . Everyone is a criminal now

    12 bottles a case at about $7 each $84 a case or so. Call it 36 cases to a pallet $3000ish dollars. Around 750 pounds a pallet. Assumeing a max gvwr load pf around 50k pounds in a day cab going to a distribution center at most your going to see 220 to 250K just for cargo. Throw in $150ish K for tractor and trailer value and 400k is about correct for the full value of the entire rig and cargo. I wouldnt call that fraud. Could be more for tractor and trailer and less for cargo too. But 400k checks out.

    Edit: thinking about it my bet is some moron decided $400K worth of pinesol sounds better then a truck and cargo with a value of 400k and your average reader wont catch that lie. Typical media lack of fact checking.
