The Superon Tanker Truck is a vehicle that featured in Path Of Destruction
Designed by the Superon Fuel Corporation and equipped with a transverse diesel engine, the Crablogger was supported by a fleet of these tankers. Their job was to keep the Crablogger supplied with the liquified gas Superon, which required one full tanker-load to be delivered every three hours.

Virgil and Brains set about draining the tanks of the explosive Superon fuel. Scott brings up a fuel truck and Virgil and Brains attach siphons to the fuel outlets.
