Got my stolen truck back this weekend
The story of it getting stolen..
Went to the local dealership this weekend to see my stolen farm truck. Its staying there for a while to get detailed since the local PD in Arizona dusted both doors for prints, and the guy filled the interior with trash. There were phone books from California on the inside, so we're thinking the guy who stole it drove it all the way to the coast, which is backed up by the additional 2,000 miles that are on it now.
The guy also took of the brush guard, cut the mud flaps off with a box cutter, and lost the spare tire. The brush guard and mud flaps make sense, him trying to make the truck not stand out as much in the city. But ditching the spare tire seems pretty stupid.
Anyways, good to have the truck back. Just have to decide if we're going to keep it or sell it sence we already ordered a 2011 F-150 to replace it.
Also, got the hub caps out of storage since we're thinking about selling the truck. They're still in the packaging from the factory, but have Coors beer cardboard containers layered between the hubcaps. Anybody seen this before or know why this is? Kind of interesting to see.

would you still have bought the 2011 is this truck did not get stolen? If the answer is no, then talk to your salesman to see if you can cancel your order without penalty, and continue to use this truck on the farm.
She made it back home, she wants to work on the farm.
Looks like a good truck in good condition. Do a good overall inspection, check all the maintainence, change the oil and put her back to work.

The truck got a full maintainence job from a dealer in Arizona before it got shipped back to Kansas, so we're all good there.
We've basically decided that since we have a high asking price for the truck, whoever buys it is going to keep it in good condition, which is what we want. If we dont get our asking price, its coming back to the farm for the rest of its life, or maybe become my weekend truck when I graduate college.
