My gosh, I remember the first one you posted. I think I would be done if this happened to me twice. I live in Tomball and will keep my eyes open for the trailer and the truck.
My immediate thought when reading this was that it was an inside job. Parking the trailer one night and gone the next morning? That smells like an inside job to me.
I hate to hear this for you. Man, your insurance company is not going to like it at all.
I don’t think they cut the lock. Video shows the truck there just a minute or two. I think the guy used his own chains to chain it to his truck. Next one will have gps and I’ll either take wheels off one side or get a hardened chain and chain the wheels together. My cop buddy said they have gps detectors so maybe just having gps plus wheel chains will deter them.
I second the opinion about an inside job. Might help on the next one to let the storage guy setting you up know you have a gps in it and that you've boobey trapped it because of past issues.
Is there any way to lock the wheels on travel trailers? Any type of deterrent that would have a would-be thief move on? I have thought about purchasing a trailer but I feel like the safest place to store it would be the deer lease. Not sure I want the headache of using a local storage facility. Sorry to hear about this a second time for you. Terrible.
If you disconnect the battery so you are not always send power to your brake pads, pull your breakaway switch so when they hook up it will lock up the brakes. (if they have a charge wire on their vehicle plug)
Stolen truck so best way to protect your assets is a GPS tracker and a back up in a different location. If they’re next level they’ll have a gps/wifi/cell jammer….
