I hope he turns up soon. I would imagine that you have notified authorities along his route? If not, it would be a good idea in case he or the truck turns up.

 

he was found dead along with his dog.
A sad ending for him and his family.
This kind of thing really bugs me,the thoughts
of a fellow driver dying out in his truck somewhere.
Oh well

 

That's really terrible. I'm sorry to hear that.
