Sorry, that sucks
Maybe the theives used a tow truck. I know that is how they stole my grandmother's brand new 87 Firebird(back in 1987). Found it stripped on the beach a few days later.

I steal cars out of peoles driveways every night without keys, its my job!. Expedtion would take about 6-8 seconds depending on the all wheel drive or 4 wheel drive or 2wd is easier.

Repoman?



Like it was said they can tow it. I also believe there is equipment out their to bypass security systems in cars, or fake things such as the PATS system.

Remember, if they want it bad enough they will get get it, short of you sitting there 24/7 with shotgun.

My brother is a repoman and the worst that has happened to him is a 300lb, naked black woman comming at him with a buther knife.... But people he works with get shot at alot and a few are killed from time to time... had one Killed here in Houston a few years back with a deer rifle. repoman died and the shooter got prison time, but not a whole lot.

Yes the boom on the truck will slide under the front or back wheels and drug to saftey where it can either be resecured or hoisted properly. Personally I would just drag the thing I really dont care. Understand that the people who take these cars and trucks dont get paid unless they come back with the car so yeah we find ways of getting out of weird cituations. usually not good for the car

That's when they passed that make my day law. Where you have the right in the state of Texas to protech your property. Here in Michigan you do have that right!
