    Nothing. I zoomed in on my desktop... It's just a strip of light between tires.

    you know, when i went back to look at the werner truck, i think it's the space between his tandems and the right side of the trailer. look at the second pic, and look at the van next to his on the right, you see the same thing.

    I feel your pain.. my first new truck ever (1993 FLD120) was hit 4 times in three months.... only once did one of the drivers come and check on the truck and contact me. The other three times I was inside the truck stop. It was never anything as major as that.. but its apparent to me that most of the time, these people will just drive off and hide somewhere...

    This is at the Flyingj east of Walcot on I-80. Some of the drivers that have been here all weekend said no one has been around since it was parked. Possibly doing home time. But the trailer has a seal on it. Possibly loaded. Also someone put the dry sweep under the front of it.

    That sucks!

    Reminds me of that one time my wife's car got hit at Walmart. She drove in there and parked a really new Subaru Forester with less than 5000 miles on it. She came out after her shopping to see a note on the window, and the back end caved in.

    The note simply said "Sorry". No phone #, name or anything. Just "sorry".

    Fortunately she was parked near a camera that caught everything. But it was, and will be the last time we shop there.

    Couldn't she check with Walmart? Everywhere now I see they have cameras in the parking lot.

    You know all of the rookies seeing this thread just decided they are never parking anywhere but a fuel island.
