trailer capacity

Wow, I have trouble believing the 1,000 gallon theft, and the 400 gallon one is incredible. Picture a 55 gallon drum. For 1,000 gallons, the thief would need at least 19 of them. Then room for the inside the other person, the pump (which must be fairly large and powerful to not spend days over the station tank fill), all would imply a huge trailer. The 1,000 gallons would weigh 6,000 lbs., not including the drums, pump, batteries?, and man. That's a big trailer. Ron
