New Truck<Thieves FML

Totally unnecessary. Sad you feel the need to rebut some random comment made by someone on a message board in this fashion, ostensibly trying to show you're a baller, I guess.

Anyways...OP - Sucks about the truck. Invest in some better security lighting around your home. And maybe a home security camera.

the 55 pound Japanese Akita

You has a small Akita...

My new truck sits outside. I can't fit it in the garage, and no, I'm not baller enough to have a custom built huge ass garage. My wife's Edge lives in there along with some crap I need to get rid of.

One of the common denominators that I have seen is that almost all of the stolen wheels are done on trucks that are on level ground. My neighborhood all has an incline to the driveway that would probably make it hard for someone to jack up without it rolling downhill.

Yup, but I use it well. Oh wait, you mean the dog...

My F150 would probably fit in my garage, but with a J swing driveway and my wife's car already in there, I'm not about to try... I'd break something, I'm sure.

My dogs sleep right by the front door and my vehicle is 6' past that so I'm sure they'd wake me up and I'd grab a gun and go running out the door shooting someone... or my truck. And they'd get away and I'd have a few holes in my truck.

Perhaps a shotgun would be a better idea... Anyone have a riot-type shotgun a brotha could hold? At least that way I could way until they started to run and I'd still hit them at night...

Yeah, that's the ticket....

Thats pretty gangster, but I bought a pit bull just to tie up in the bed, with a long enough heavy duty trucker chain for him to reach around the truck to bite muffuckas...

I bought some wheels today and a lift kit. Insurance company is dragging their feet. :/

who is your insurer?

SF, they're gonna take care of it. I just can't wait a week to get new wheels. Its my only other DD. I hate seeing my brand new truck on three 17" wheels and a 16" wheel. I bought the pro comp leveling kit and some kmc wheels with nitto Tera tires.

More like a cost cutting move, just like the chrome caps on the wheels. Its 2011, no new vehicle should have drum brakes any more. Hell my $16k econobox I bought in 08 had rear discs.

gm hasnt had discs on the rear of trucks since 05 (they had HUGE parking brake issues wearing out the insides of rotors), gms rear discs suck on the trucks. My truck with drum rears stops better than my buddys with discs...same truck otherwise. Mine even stops better with the malibu behind it than his does!

My 2010 Silverado 4x4 has rear disc brakes.

[OrangeChevyII]

The LTZ trucks come with them. That's a 50,000 dollar truck.

[Txstang1]

Exactly what I was just thinking! Is it so hard to have wheel locks put on. I'm sure you can find a place to hide the key inside the vehicle if needed.

He only had the truck 12 hours before the rims were stolen.

What's sad about that? nice fuckin house if you ask me.

Haterz gonna hate.

[Slowhand]

shut up.



That isnt my house, it's my neighbor's 3 doors down that is for sale. Quickest pic I could find.

Glad to see that your newly acquired reputation as a complete fuckhead is accurate and should stick!

That's funny, I saw a new gen Tahoe with rear discs. So instead of making a better quality brake rotor/pad, they took the cheap/easy route and went back to 60s technology? If I'm throwing down $40k on anything it better damn well have rear discs.
