I hope that you had good insurance on the RV.
THat is basically an agreement with your insurance agent to buy your RV if it is stolen or destroyed in a accident for a agreed upon price. If the police recover the RV in poor condition, you can still ask the insurance agent to keep the RV and pay you for it.
Many times when a car is partially destroyed, or a trailer hit with hail and has $8,000 in damage, you can buy it back from the insurance agent for a reasonable price. I don't know if I would want to camp in a very toxic used meth lab though. It is best to total that RV and get another one.
THe wheels can be locked up with a large cable going through the spokes. It only takes a few extra seconds to burn through that cable with a torch, just like the hitch lock, but perhaps they will look someplace else.
Then there are tracking units you can buy. One is a basic cell phone, and you can "Call" the tracker and track it's location just like tracking the GPS on the cell phone. You get a ATT monthly plan pay by the minute plan, and insert the card into the tracking device, insert the 3.7 volt battery, and hide it someplace on what you want tracked. You only use minutes while calling the tracker, and only need to use about 1 minute per call. As long as the RV gets parked someplace where it can pick up a cell signal, you can find it again. The police can fly over the area and find "Reasonable Cause" to go search for it on private property if they can spot it from the air. Reasonable cause is highly enhanced if you can show your tracker is located right under where they are looking.
The tracker that I bought was only $35. You own it and do not pay a monthly fee to maintain it. Only for the monthly pay by the minute phone, and you only need to activate it and use it once to test, then wait a few months before using it again.
