This is not my truck and have no affiliation with the owner. I just want to put this here just in case someone comes across this truck. Here is the story from the local Kansas City news.

Me too. I have had a car stolen before, fortunate that my cell phone that I had tucked in the door pocket was on. I always leave my GPS active just in case, lucky for me the cops located the car with a few calls to Sprints security dept.

I was at the gym at the time, other wise I would have had the phone with me. The worst part is I couldn't call anyone to come get me because I couldn't remember anyone's number.

Went to the movies the other day with a brand new four wheeler in the back of my dad's truck. Left my phone under the seat and being its an iPhone I new I could use the "find my phone" app to locate it.

Scumbag thieves! I hate them. I had a '71 C/30 NAPCO that got stolen back in '92 from the shop that pulled the utility bed I sold so I could start the body restoration. The worst part was, I had completely rebuilt the drivetrain and it was a monumental task gathering the NAPCO parts. This was before the internet (for me, at least). ARGH!!!

I know how this guy feels and it sucks! The bad feeling (and anger) comes right back every time I hear a truck is stolen someone put a lot into

Poor guy...I feel same as everyone else. Our first ever new car..86 Buick Grand National...was stolen. Weird feeling when it isn't where you left it.

people who steal stuff need to get the punishments like they do out east. ...get caught stealing something: 1st time, get your hand broken. 2nd time, get it cut off.

...it'll really make you think twice if it's really worth doing.

What kind of security do you use? I have an old "The Club" in the garage but I heard they are not that effective. Maybe a kill switch?

That's my world as well. No need for jail time.

Totally agree. Jail is a taxpayer funded hotel where petty criminals get to learn new techniques and contacts from the hardened (lifer) criminals.

That was a scary deal. Ours ended up in Camden, NJ, police called, they had it in impound. Went to get our baby expecting a stripped hulk. Instead it was washed, waxed, guy added fuzzy dice and a steering wheel wrap, we got his leather jacket, a bunch of casette tapes and a dust buster. Rear tires were bald. Funny part was he replaced the door lock knobs with the theft proof smooth knobs. We sold the car just after and bought a new 87 GN.

We were moving when my K10 got stolen, and everything I held dear to me was in the bed. the cops found it the next afternoon. in neutral on the 4 transfer case selector. it seems the thieves weren't four wheel drive friendly and couldn't get it in gear, so they left it.
