Truck found. Thieves tried to scratch off the CWT sticker, but it defeated them and they gave up. There are actually two sets up lug nuts on each wheel, one on the inside and one on the outside...so they could get these crappy wheels to fit. They took my battery too and replaced it with a piece of crap to drive it the dump site (7th ave and broadway). Damaged lots of plastic panels inside. And of course took my stereo stuff, pistol, and misc. other things. Left my car seats for the kids though! Now to deal with the insurance company! USAA has been great, let's hope that continues. Oh, and we came back empty handed from our coues hunt. My buddy missed his buck (4 times). I had one shot lined up on a buck and doe playing peek a boo behind a tree with the sun going down. Doe kept coming out, but the buck apparently could feel my crosshairs because he stayed behind that tree (stared at it for well over an hour until dark). Had a good time though and forgot about my truck problems.

I live in Maricopa. The truck was stolen from our security patrolled parking lot at work in Tempe. I can see my truck from my desk window. I think I reported it to the police fairly quickly. There are fake cameras in the parking lot and lots of people. No broken glass and it disappeared around lunchtime when the parking lot is rather busy. Whoever stole it was fairly good at what they do. I own the truck outright, there is no lien that could have gotten screwy. I do have full coverage, but I'll never come close to getting back the 8 grand in parts I have on the truck. My policy caps aftermarket accessories at 2 grand. Sometimes I wish I could just leave my vehicles stock, but I never do. It's a sickness.

So I just put this sticker on my truck, took a picture to post on the forums but didn't get around to it. Leaving for an early coues hunt in one day. This afternoon, the sticker was stolen! (along with my truck). Truck is kinda big. Up until two weeks ago it had 38x15.50x20 Toyo M/T's. Dropped down to new 35x12.50's. If you happen to see it around please call it in to the police. (lost a rather new pistol in the deal too) Just spent $1500 in new tires, and replaced both front cv axles......two weeks ago. Bummer it happened right before the hunt. Thanks! Roger
