Have I mentioned how much I hate thieves?

Steve · 10-24-2014, 01:14 PM

One of the things you really don't want to hear at 6:45 am from your wife is "honey, where's the truck..."

Yup, once again it seems that thieves have struck. My F250 SD drove off without me sometime last night between the time I got home from the HS football game and went to bed (11:30ish) and the time Holly started to go to work. It could have been much worse, but dang, I really liked that truck. Fortunately other than my prescription Costas, there really wasn't anything of much value. But...

Oh well. Life goes on.

Crazy bro, hopefully you get it back fast.

IBQTEE1 · 10-24-2014, 01:22 PM

Sorry to hear Steve. Hope everything works out.

Stolen vehicles are usually trashed, if not already stripped down within 24 to 48 hours. They're not going to be gentle with it when they're headed to the chop shop or wherever they take it...

You need to move out to the sticks like me. Plus you would be close the Osceola too.

equetefue · 10-24-2014, 02:02 PM

darn Steve. Any leads whatsoever? Anything in the car like LoJack ?

kydsid · 10-24-2014, 02:20 PM

Look at the bright side. Holly can't possibly deny you a new truck now. And the new trucks have AC seats, and they are Gods answer to swamp ass.

MarkinAZ · 10-24-2014, 02:46 PM

I'm truly sorry to hear about that Steve. Of course, in some States where I've lived, there's a saying "its nothing that a .45 wouldn't take care of..." So...

file an auto theft report with local law enforcement.
file an auto theft claim with your insurance carrier.
lojack etc available in your truck? (activate it)
neighbors have digital surveillance available?
neighborhood witnesses?
any city intersection surveillance available?

Hope they catch the sob's quickly

swamp ass is a bad deal. Hope you're covered for a new truck.

weems · 10-24-2014, 02:52 PM

What year F250? Were the keys left in it!

Sorry for your loss man, hopefully your insurance will get you into another one quickly!

Sorry to hear about this, Steve -- I hope it all gets resolved quickly and to your satisfaction.

Sorry to hear bro, that sucks!!!

rr_coyote · 10-24-2014, 11:49 PM

That really sucks! Hopefully it gets recovered in one piece.

cigarmarine · 10-25-2014, 04:44 AM

Sorry to hear that, nothing beats a good truck

Sorry To Hear This, Steve. I Hate Thieves, Too!

shilala · 10-25-2014, 05:52 AM

That does suck royal, Steve.
They did me one time, too. Stole our truck at around 3:00 in the morning, and I heard all the noise. I just ignored it because I thought it was the drilling rig rolling out that was working right by the house.
So a week or two later my (now ex) wife says "Hey, where's my truck?"
I said "I figured you leant it to Ronnie." That was her brother, he'd had it for about a month and had only just returned it.
Then I put 2 and 2 together about when it left.
The cops found it gutted up in a strip mine. Little bastages blew up the motor just for spite, after they dumped it. A 400 with 18,000 original miles on it. That's the only part that really pissed me off. When I saw the rods sticking out the oil pan I saw red.
I'm just glad I never found out who did it.

pektel · 10-25-2014, 11:54 AM

That sucks, man. I have a strong dislike for thieves.

I know it's "just stuff", but the lack of respect for other people and their property is what gets me.

I hope it's recovered, and if not, I hope you're covered.

kelmac07 · 10-25-2014, 12:11 PM
