the truck was not running in the driveway. it happened around 2:45 am. a neighbor saw the truck drive away and called the police (i kmow that because it was in the police report).
as far as the dogs, there were in their cage and we had the fans on so it is hard to hear outside.

I'm a bit biased (like most folks) but I would pick a Jeep GC diesel as a backup. At least then you can run around comfortably while the TT is at the campsite.
