Is your travel trailer missing? Police say they just might have it!

We’re hard-pressed to explain how an RVer could be missing a travel trailer and not know it. But in a strange case, opening sometime before mid-October, police say it’s happened. Police find stolen travel trailer; now they want to find the owner.

Police find stolen travel trailer in the Okanogan

Canadian Mounties in Vernon, British Columbia, say they found what appears to be a Keystone Premier travel trailer while doing an investigation. That happened back on October 11. Now they say they can’t find the owner—apparently a stolen report was never filed.

How could someone steal your trailer—months ago—and you not know it? Maybe it was parked at a storage yard, and laid up, waiting for spring. Perhaps the RVer parked it at their “summer place,” and hasn’t returned since. On the other hand, why wouldn’t a VIN search yield up the owner’s name? Who knows!

In any event, if this rig is yours, or you know who it belongs to, give the Mounties at the Armstrong Detachment a shout. Call 250-546-3028 and refer to file #2024-617

Russ and Tiña went from childhood tent camping to RVing in the 1980s when the ground got too hard. They've been tutored in the ways of RVing (and RV repair) by a series of rigs, from truck campers, to a fifth-wheel, and several travel trailers. In addition to writing scores of articles on RVing topics, they've also taught college classes for folks new to RVing. They authored the book, RV Boondocking Basics.

I have my trailer stored in a gated and fenced lot with cameras. There are some there that have not been moved in years. I doubt very much if the owners even come to look at them.
I spoke with the lot owner and he told me as long as the rent is paid and the unit is in decent condition, there is nothing he can do.

Hey, that’s mine! Yeah, I bought it with my wife, Morgan Fairchild.

Thank you, Russ and Tina! Seems rather curious. I wonder if/when they will find an owner? Happy new year!
