Some ******* mexican ******** tried to steal my truck today in my parking lot at work, in broad daylight. In the process of attempting to enter the truck they shattered my passenger side wing window.. I am HEATED.

You must be registered for see images attach


A girl I work with was in the parking lot and noticed two mexican dudes trying to open my door then one of them pulled out a screw driver and tried to pry open my wing window.. she started walking over to them and they hi-tailed it in a white suburban. Chevy wants $400.00 for the damn thing because they don't sell just the glass.. anybody have a wing they don't need that they would like to sell me??

I could only imagine, I would be ready to bash some heads dude. I hate thieves, I really wish you would have caught them in the act and got a solid punch in.

At the same time low lives here in Reno are shooting and stabbing as well as thieving, not worth getting killed over.

I got paged to get to the front immediately and when I found out I sprinted out to the parking lot with my knife in hand about to kill somebody haha only to find out they had just gotten away...

Damn. my 85 has an alarm on it and a kill switch too from a previous owner. Mexicans LOVE these trucks. Everytime I pass a crewcab lawn service truck they are about 10 deep in there and STARE at the 85. Worries me. Hate to leave it in a parking lot anywhere unattended. Luckily in my small cubby hole neighborhood we get no traffic, its too far off the main drag

That's what worries me about having a square. You can't have ANYTHING nice anymore without someone ******* it up somehow.

They are easy to steal, cheap to fix and easy to work on. When I was living in southern Nm someone was explaining how easily you can drive a stolen car around in Mexico, all they have to do is get to the border.

I already know the nicer mine get, the more I'd have to worry about it getting stolen. I'll have a # of kill switches and a fuel line shut off valve so even if they do it, once the carb is out of fuel, they aren't getting far. And I find the sumbishes in my trucks 2 blocks away broke down, then I know I got the right fuggers and ........ NUFF SAID. Somethings just better left unsaid.

Crud, I know I have a left side, but not certain about a passenger side. If I find a pass side, I'll let you know. I'd also check with a glass shop if all that is wrong is broken glass. A glass shop knows how to extract the glass from the same frame, and glue in a new piece of glass without it leaking. Worth a try. Seems you can get new glass put in for about $60 or so. Sorry to hear it man, just fuggin sucks !!!
