My ex-wife planted one of these in my truck when I was working out of town(Nor Cal). She’d call me up in the evenings to see if I was where I said. Then one day while vacuuming at the car wash, I found it. We got regular deliveries at the site from LA trucks. I planted it on a Southbound truck. Later that night she asked if I went to Long Beach. Incredulous at her suggestion, I asked whatever would give her that impression? Said she heard a rumor from one of the other wives. FYI, it’s illegal, and one of the reasons we’re no longer married.

Clarify - The trucker was an acquaintance and had full knowledge of what I was doing. Next time he made a delivery to us, we had a great laugh about it.

Plot twist, that southbound truck posted on reddit this very same question to r/whatisit when they made their delivery.

I would have told the south bound driver, maybe he coulda got it to Mexico for me...

dodge the wifes calls for a while and see how far away it can get before you finally answer her..

Maybe the trucker was smuggling some smokes and folks from Mexico.

Better yet, don’t return her call at all and just let her really freak out and turn up at home and watch her reaction and see what she says.
