May 10, 2010, Derek Ryan Funk, 19, left the home of a friend in Powell, climbed into his white Ford Ranger pickup truck, and started on the 15-mile drive to his home on Coffman Street in South Knoxville.
He has not been seen since.
"We suspect foul play," said Knoxville Police Department Investigator Phyllis Tonkin.
Last week, Funk's parents, Kevin and Tricia Funk of Oak Ridge, decided their reward offer of $5,000 will be increased to $10,000, effective immediately.
"We hope this will be a factor in bringing someone forward who knows something," Kevin Funk said. "It's an added incentive for someone to talk."
The reward is for information leading to his whereabouts, the location of his body or the conviction of anyone responsible for his absence. The offer remains valid through May 12, 2012.
The last person known to have seen and spoken with Derek Funk is his Powell friend, Lauren Owings.
Anyone with information about this case is asked to call the KPD tip hot line, 865-215-7217.

(WBIR - Knoxville) The Knoxville Volunteer Rescue Squad says it has recovered even more human remains from the water where a truck belonging to a missing East Tennessee man was found.
The Knoxville Police Department says the truck that was found may belong 19-year-old Derek Ryan Funk. He was last seen driving his 1996 Ford Ranger on May 12, 2010.
On that night, Funk was leaving his girlfriend's house in Powell, but never arrived at his South Knoxville home.http://www.wbir.com/story/news/local/south-knoxville/2014/03/21/missing-mans-truck-pulled-from-water/6686887/
