Have you pissed someone off lately? I live in a small town to but my keys always stay in my pockets. You never know if a thief is going to steal it or your own friends are going to screw with ya.

Also, in the morning i go to the gym, so I always have shorts on and never have anywhere to put them, its just something dumb i never thought would mean anything. I never though someone would steal it, the only reason i even locked it is so noone would steal things OUT of it, not the entire truck! But yeah i get the truck back today, im having it towed to the body shop. If its not totalled im going to have to get it fixed, anyone have a truck ther eparting out with good front end parts? I know for shure it needs almost everything on the front. Do 07 bumpers fit onto 04 bumpers? With the round fog lights? Because mines demolished anyhow. I will need new wheels and tires (stocks fine), new rear bumper, new gauge cluster, and some smallother things. like i said ill post pictures tonight. later

You Are Not Dumb!
dude...that wasn't dumb to put ur keys in there...i do it all the time...or just drop 'em in the bed... i think that you ought to be able to trust people not to be a bunch of A$$HOLE$ and leave your stuff alone...it seems that nobody understands that most of us have to work day in and day out to have the things that we have come to have and love...
...it is never your fault that somebody stole something that does not belong to them...it is stealing whether the damn truck was locked, chained up, and in a damn fence....stealing is stealing and it's their fault...
I hope for only the best for you and your truck....and only the worse for whoever stole the truck in the first place...good luck bud...it'll work out!

There is only one person responsible for the safety and security of your stuff and that's you. You should be able to trust people to not touch your stuff, but when you know there are people that will then it's irresponsible to not take steps to protect things. How would you feel if someone found your keys, took your truck and killed somebody with it? Something that could have been prevented by simply not making it that easy to take in the first place.

i believe in what he said, its completley retarted how we have to babysit everything we own because of the worthless ****** out there who have nothing better do. Anyways, I looked overmy truck, it needs the front bmper, the piece obove the front bumper, grill, replace bug shield, hood has a small dent but a bug shield would cover it, or it can be fixed, a rear bumper (the old one may be able to be fixed), gauge cluster (i already have one), drivers side window, and drivers side mirror, and some paint on the front right fender and passenger door. It has BRAND NEW LEATHER, and I babied the truck like it was all i had. Would anyone be interested in buying it? As I think I may get a new one, but im just testing waters. It wouldnt take much to fix it. thanks!

hey, does everybodies 4x4 seem to shift very late, I know its a torque gear, but I had to move the truck today at the body shop to outback in there impound yard until insurance decides, and I buy it back so I can get it fixed. It was recovered in 4x4 low, and today was the first time i drove it since it was stolen (about 2 blocks), but it seemed like wasnt shifting till almost 5 or 6 thousand rpm? Ive never driven it in 4x4 low , so i was just curious.
