    Should’ve bought a Volvo. No one wants to steal those!

    I don't understand why someone with a truck that expensive doesn't have several tracking devices attached. Crooks might disable one, but probably not 3 or 4.

    Your guess is as good as mine and that one. Hope they’ve got a good insurance policy though.

    An expensive asset like that I would have it Lo’jacked six ways to Sunday!

    I can’t fathom spending $300,000 on a dump truck or any CMV. Even $200,000 would be pushing it!
