    I had an odd thing happen last night while parked at Gee Cees truck stop I-5 exit 57 in Toledo, WA. My refer alarmed and wouldn't start and it turned out that it was low on fuel. Since I'd just filled it, I'm pretty sure someone siphoned fuel while I was sleeping. During pre-trip, I noticed my trainer was missing a mud flap and the other was barely hanging on. Bolts were loosened, but not gone. I notified somebody at the fuel desk. Be safe out there.

    What's so odd about having been stolen from?

    So Thats what them "Driver Facing Cameras" are for.Lol..Seriously those thieves are getting very "Brazen". Seen a Safeway Gas Station video on the news.Someone was stealing items out the passenger side of a car...While the driver was putting fuel in. Broad Daylight in Olympia.

    Were you parked on the dirt/gravel lot in the back? I can't imagine somebody stealing on the paved lot in the front, but I guess stranger things have happened. Seems kind of stupid risking arrest (or getting shot) for a few bucks of fuel.
