The bold emphisis is mine of course. I find it very curious that they know damn well there are more than 14 dead, but are not telling us.

If there are bodies in those trucks, then there must be a lot more than 14, otherwise the trucks would not be needed. There was a thread about "stacks of bodies", and also there was the hospital official interviewed on Fox who said there were 150 DOAs. But the count remains at 14 three days later.

Has anyone else found this curious?

No. Two refrigerator trucks doesn't mean 18 wheelers. I also imagine they are arrainged and catalogued inside on some type of shelve system. My guess being these are dedicated mortuary trucks, not a rented Ryder. I seriously doubt visions of bodies packed like cordwood are accurate. There is also no reason to suspect the trucks are full.

There's a genuine issue of emergency agency credibility as well. Until a search has been completed of the region, authorities should refrain from posting preliminary numbers.

If they disclose how many are dead they'll have to outlaw mobilehome parks in hurricane prone states.

How can they know how many are dead yet when many of the missing might be out of town or staying with relatives?
