I called the FBI to tip them off to a truck that I saw about 10 miles out of Albuquerque, NM on I-25 (which ironically goes through Denver). It was driving very slowly on the right shoulder. From behind it looked like a Ryder Truck, only white. There were NO markings on the back of the truck, and since it was moving I went over into the fast lane as I thought he was getting ready to pull back onto the freeway. As I passed I thought it was a Federal Express truck, but something didn't click. There were 2 short Arab men in the truck. I slowed down and kept looking into my mirrors and I realized what was odd about the truck is that the logo was not right. I have used Fed Ex for several years in my businesses and I have NEVER seen two men in one truck. There is only one explanation that I have. This truck was NOT a Fed Ex truck, but was painted to resemble one. A perfect cover for someone to use for a truck bomb. The FBI agent I spoke with said he had never heard about one being painted but agreed that it would be a perfect way to slip around and not be noticed. He was very interested but our call was interrupted twice and he had to take the second call. He apologized and said he would "pass the information on." What upset me is that he never asked me for my name or how to get back in touch with me for additional information. Over-worked, under-staffed or carless FBI agents could result in another tragedy. I was married to a police officer for 13 years and he told me to always pay attention to details, and I do. The main reason I'm posting this information is for you all to keep your eyes open for trucks that are NOT IDENTICAL to a company logo. This much I KNOW. There is at least one truck which has been painted white in an attempt to look like a Fed Ex truck. This truck has/had a couple of short Arab men in it. My fear is that the FBI agent was so busy he didn't follow up on it. PLEASE keep your eyes open and pray to God that they find these two before something happens.

I hope no hardware store is stupid enough to sell foreign Arabs paint.

A bump for you. Good job! Only one driver in UPS trucks, too.
