    I was at the Pilot in Salinas last summer and saw a CR England truck pull in. On the dash was 4 cats. I gave everyone the benefit of the doubt. Then I saw the husband/wife team get out. Combined they both had to be bumping 800lbs. Now I have nothing against cats, husband wife teams, or 800lbs of humans, but add all that together, plus the kitty litter boxes, the look of non showered, total train wreck humans, then for me it becomes an issue, especially for the cats, only because they weren’t asked to be put in that poophole.

    How long were you parked?. Is it possible someone syphoned the tanks?.

    True, anything is possible but I was parked for my 10 hr break. I was in the truck about 2 hrs when that happened. I'm sure it a sensor issue. I looked in the tanks via flashlight and could see fuel. I've heard drivers say this happened to them in some other KW's too.

    These Volvos will drain fuel into the passenger side tank if parked on unlevel ground, then give a false reading for a while...

    I have heard horror stories about the KW fuel gauge.

    Oh yeah. Got one of the 17's and the only things they've replaced more than my tires are the fuel level sensors. Usually have to jar the truck a tad to loosen the floats.
