Shirley you missed, my post in his first stolen car thread. I forgive you, just this once.

I disagree ....somehow he was targeted for the first and the second. There is obviously a crew working his area...shit they can spot you driving and follow you home...I would check his in car camera footage if it backs up to the cloud and see if someone was fallowing him a few days before the first event.

another thought...some of these thieves could be on our very car forums looking for guys to post up pictures of their rides.

Exactly.
I also doubt that they would steal the cars if they had to carry them.

My stepson has an F150, and naturally he is worried they will come back for it.
He bought a steering wheel club for it yesterday and is getting an immobilizer installed next week.
I'll be doing the same when I get the GS and whatever I buy to replace my Charger.
Also will be installing the best home security system I can find.
A guy I work with lives near me and had an attempt on his truck a few months ago. Apparently he has a pretty good system installed. I'm going to go check it out.

Also, Lisa was talking to a couple neighbors yesterday, and one is convinced that there's a group of Indian (dot not feather) guys that cruise this neighborhood in a white Honda civic and a black SUV scouting for vehicles.
The night my Z06 was stolen she had a work function in the evening and got home around 10:30pm and she said there was a couple guys in a white civic parked on the street near our house.
Interesting....

Not a mansion or anything; 2,400 sq feet.

But I love it and I've been waiting a long time for this.

My first house that I actually own:

Yeh, cannot happen to me plus I removed the emergency hand so all that hangs is a rope with no pull handle. Nothing to attach the hanger to trigger a release.

Plus designer "Lars bars."
