Can't believe it...here we are talking about bad things and the punks break into my Truck bed tool box last night. Little to no damage but about $ 500.00 lighter in the tool dept.

Third break-in in 4 years...three different trucks...three different locations.
I posted details @ the 6.0 forum.

About a year ago some kid broke into my VW. Apperently if you break the passenger window out and pop out the dome light and short it, it disables the alarm! I never figured it was that easy to get into an alarmed car like that.

Luckily my neighbor happened to be having a smoke at the time and called the cops right away. When they knocked on my door at 2am I was a bit P.O.ed... Neighbor told me they were there in less then 2 minutes. The cops had the guy int he back of the car when I went out to ID my stuff...

So I didn't lose anything but piece of mind that someone could get in the freaking car.

Yeah, the loss of the stuff is bad....
but the sense of invasion and loss of th feeling of safety NEVER comes back,....
my 80+ yr old in-laws in Memphis have FORT KNOX... but have still been broken into twice... GGGGGGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRR I HOPE they do that when we're visiting !!!

And my sister is STILL paranoid since they broke into their master bedroom window... WHILE they were there !!! Talk about stupid criminals !
