Yeah, Ryan, if you do wind up going out and taking the truck, you'll want to park it in a locked garage, preferably with no windows. It's very easy to retaliate against a vehicle.

That's why you park it at a friends house, one of those friends no one knows you are friends with, this type of thing has been done before. Plus its Wisconsin, anything is legal in Wisconsin.....spoken from a mud duck....

I think only Ryan would be safe to get his own truck, anybody else might get into trouble. I do worry about it disappearing though.

wow. What a turnout.
Glad it all will workout buddy.
I sure hope you get your truck back +$12k or something... and that you dont get any tickets or restraining orders for teachin ur uncle wat fer.

Justified IMHO.
You got more restraint than I woulda had.
In all honesty my other 5 or 6 Ford diesel buddies woulda been up there tearin the place to he!!

I would also let cookie know to delete this.
Those of us involved will agree it was quite the 'adventure'

Good luck back at MOS

Yeah, now that his uncle is licking his wounds, he could call Marcus and tell him that Ryan called the police and to get rid of the truck fast. It could end up in pieces in a matter of hours and anything with a vin would end up at the bottom of the lake. I hope the first thing the police do is impound the truck so it doesn't disappear for good.

Ryan glad it's going in your favor now, and hopefully you get your truck back in one piece with some extra cash in hand. I hope beating the he!! out of your uncle doesn't come back to hurt you in the lawsuit or with the Marines. But none of us can blame your for doing it though cause we all love our trucks that much. Good luck and thanks for your service.

Hey Ryan! Well, hopefully the scales are tipping in your favor now. I feel a little better about it, but my mind won't truly be at ease until you post on here you have your truck back and it's all good. I hope those a**holes don't do any thing to it before you get it back. When you do get it back, you be sure to post some pics of you with your truck!!!

As for your uncle, I agree with the others in hopes that what happened doesn't hurt your case..............but that had to have been better than sex!!! LOL!! Good luck bud!!

Lol, probably. I agree need to park it at a friends house a controlled area preferrably in a garage with a locked fence and a dog like Cujo protecting it. Also when u do get it back which you will you might think about changing the plates and painting it so nobody recognizes it if and when you do drive it. Just my two cents. Stay positive.

Wow!!! What a turn of events! Get the truck. Perhaps the police should accompany you on that trip.

And I would consider finding a new family,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

But, I guess you've got one of those, right here!
