I guess I'm going to think about anti theft measures. Where are they getting stolen from most of the time? I had a 2000 7.3. First attempt was the Glendale Cabelas parking lot, 2nd time out of my driveway where they successfully stole it. It was a standard transmission. I got it back but the truck was trashed.

bowhunter-tw Report post Posted February 23, 2023 IM ASTONISHED. They found my truck. It was parked about 3mi from my house in a random apartment complex. Looks like potentially tweakers, everything was rummaged through but nothing gone that I can tell right now. Security system will be installed in the very near future. 26 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigorange Report post Posted February 23, 2023 Great news, but yeh have it checked out thoroughly. Friend had his truck stolen by a tweaker and got it back pretty quickly…had so much “hidden” damage when he had it checked out that he decided to get rid of it. I don’t know all the details but they found all kinds of drug residue and paraphernalia inside the vehicle plus frame and other damage that he didn’t want to risk it.

andyyy Report post Posted February 23, 2023 congrats OP, my buddy had his titan recovered after being stolen by tweakers. They did weird shoot to it, stole his sunvisors and battery (cut the cables, didn’t even unbolt it) and dumped it in a bad part of town. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
