I always leave my keys in my trucks and doors unlocked and it's never been stolen and I leave it in bad areas all the time and my last truck I left it in NJ for a month unlocked and keys laying in the cupholder for over a month in a parking lot I guess I'm just lucky the time I lock the doors is when I'm at home

Well guys, they found my truck yesterday, but it was completely stripped. They took EVERYTHING from the engine compartment and all electronics. Here are a few photos. Obviously it is a total loss. I am really disappointed, but that's life. I haven't decided if I want to get a new truck, camaro, corvette, or BMW.

that's why I want a tracking system that I can track from a computer.

Lojack is kind of a joke. Not all stations are equipped to use it and they have to be close to the vehicle.
I found a nice GPS tracking device fore about 175 the other day and if your **** gets stollen you just go to their site and they have 24-hr Activation for $4.95 that lets you track 5 times and 7-day Activation for $7.95 that lets you track 10 times
That way you can just tell the cops where it is and be done.

the company was rmttracking.
