I don't care if they steal the truck and or camper (that is what insurance is for). I just use good judgement and stay out of harms way as best as I can.
I just don't want to be inside the camper if they steal it. :(
A valid concern. And while some people here might think that "Great! When they get where the're going, I'll be right there with my trusty shotgun/magnum/45/etc." You are, in fact, far better off NOT having to shoot somebody and/or getting into a position where you might get shot yourself. Leaving aside the possibility the bozos might get you into an accident while trying to make they're getaway.
I don't know how handy you are with tools, but it wouldn't be hard to cut the hot wire to the electric fuel pump and splice a switch in the camper into it. This would allow you to shut the truck down from the camper if something like that happened.
