[QUOTE="cabwrecker, post: 3274299, member: 82990"]Yeah man, it's a national problem. About 2 months ago I was at the Indian River truck stop in Big Cabin, OK north of Dallas. Did a PTI, locked all my tanks up, locked my doors and pulled the curtains then went to sleep. Woke up the next morning with most of the fuel gone out of my driver side, and my reefer tank completely drained. Company had the cops and everything down there on me, managed to prove it wasn't me (thanks to security cams in the lot) but the thief was in all black and had an SUV pull up behind me with a miter siphon pump. They never ended up getting caught, and the cops told me it happens a lot in that area. BTW: they took almost the full tank out of my driver side (90+ gallons) and the ENTIRE tank of reefer fuel (50 gallons) and the reefer shut down, failed to alarm and ruined the load (frozen foods of all sorts and kinds from about 8 different shippers, can't even imagine the losses on that.)[/QUOTE]
