they are looking for a truck that may have originated from Texas.
What's weird about this story is the Barstow connection....that town is on I-15 and 40; truckers coming from Texas would not use either of those Interstates.

Person who phoned in tip described in detail what the truck looks like including markings & company logo etc.

"What's weird about this story is the Barstow connection....that town is on I-15 and 40; truckers coming from Texas would not use either of those Interstates." Not so fast there, Gonzales. It depends upon WHERE in Tejas the truck came from. I-40 passes through the Tejas panhandle. I-15, OTOH, is completely off base, running as it does northward from San Diego thru Vegas...

If I recally my Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas correctly, Barstow is between LA and Vegas.

If the bomb laden truck was coming from Amarillo, Texas, 40 would be the highway of choice.
