    Some scum bag stole My 05 Peterbilt and 2013 Fontaine Revolution from the Pilot in Braselton GA (exit 129) on 11/25. I'd just loaded from Kobuta in Jefferson GA. I'm so sick as I just bought the combo last month. Previous owner took really good care of the unit. Rebuilt the truck from radiator back. Really truly a great truck. I'm posting here in the event that someone may have seen it or if you cross paths with it you'll know it's stolen and to please call the police or me. Insurance investigator said that there have been several loads of Kobuta tractors taken in the past few months. Most recent to mine was approximately 2 wks ago. Driver picked up at Kobuta, drove to the TA at exit 149. Went inside to shower and well y'all know the rest of the story. Long time lurker and everyday reader. Love this site.

    I hate to ask the question... does the previous owner live anywhere near the theft site? I don't know how hard it is to hot wire a big truck, but a spare key would make it real easy....

    Thats a nice truck. I hope you get it back in one piece. And may the thief find justice at the end of a rusty pipe.
