I hate a thief.
I kind of like the "chopping off a hand" approach....

Just had two locked gas cans stolen off the back of my 4runner. I hate these scum-suckers!!
You need to rig 'em up so when they are stolen they will ignite.....
Boom !
Yea, I'm a Redneck.
I am of the camp that would agree with the off with the hands. Only I would say both hands so they don't get a second chance to steal again.
You could set up a proximity fuse type thing on your gas tanks, more than 20 ft from your truck and they go up in flames.
Just reinforces the idea that anything extra mounted to your vehicle in plain sight is like dangling a lollipop in front of a child. Thieves notice it immediately and sadly more times than not it ends up departing your rig.

That seriously sucks. Best wishes for getting up and running soon. There are always sleazeballs around looking to take what's not theirs. My old ZJ has an eccentricity in the alarm system where the alarm will go off when I unlock it with a key after the latch button has been pushed. It went off this weekend while I was at my Son's house so evidently someone had been just going down the street checking doors to see if any were unlocked.

I am pissed, but also excited to do a trailer build now. And with the roofrack clear its time to get kayaks.
Hope karma catches up to that guy quick tho for sure.

He may be old but theres alot of sentimental reasons we love him. And alot of brand new under the hood, so yeah, the other stuff was just stuff. Id be devastated if we lost Chuck.
Man do I hate that happened. I'm not sure what I hate worse a thief or a lier but now I think the thief comes out on top.
I hope he/she/it gets caught.

I just saw this. Sorry to hear that. I will keep an eye out. I travel all over Spokompton pretty much everyday. Watch the surrounding areas on Craigslist also.
Do you have a trailer you're planning on building?

Sorry this happened to you. When you're ready, maybe post a list of stuff you need. I've seen the generosity of this forum's members in that thread "paying it forward". If there's an instance where that applies, it's right now with you. I might have some things I can offer up as well. Either way, keep us posted. Best wishes.
