sounds like you need to put it in a vault.
do you know that if you have the vin # ford will cut you a key for $7.
need to find them brake both legs then horse whip them.

I hope you get your truck back.. But it is more than likely over the border. Superduties are the most frequently stolen vehicle along the border because the illegals know what truck will take a beating bringing people over the border. They take out the back seat and stuff it with people.


Yours is set up perfect for them. But I hope you get it back!

When I did the hutch/harpoon I added a ball valve to the fuel line....it'll start up and drive....but not for very long. I want to get a remote start/2 way pager/alarm. Too many stories of trucks getting stolen and returned stripped. I put way too much time and money into my truck to have it stolen.

From last time it was stolen, the plate is ALO-6565. See page 1 for pics.

That really sucks. If you get it back again you need to pull a couple fuses. I'm sorry but I would have to shoot them, center mass.

Guys, I really think they are towing/pushing the truck innitially because of the noise it would make in the driveway/parking space right next to the man's window that is sometimes open.
Have any of you ever watched how fast those repo guys can wheel lift a vehicle and drive away?-the thieves most likely have a truck like this with a gas engine, back up to the truck, wheel lift it and drive away, all in less than 60 seconds, and since it was found stripped last time most likely it will be found like that this time, I don't think THIS truck is being taken by illegals trying to use it to cross the border....
No matter how you look at it it still really sucks!!

Hey guys, I didn't realize I was only updating the thread in the Texas chapter so here is the link to what all happened:

A bittersweet ending to a heck of a story.
