First Gun,

Sorry to hear about the break-ins. Hope they didn't get anything of value. How about the other two? Were they broken into also?
Glad you guys made it to the event this weekend.

Keith

Thanks Keith, No they were ok, they were driving chevys. Had a great time, heard talk of doing one in Sarrasota that would be cool!

Thieves could only afford 1 day of thief school and that was ford day......super easy to pop the lock a fords; jam screwdriver into keyhole,pry down hard,door handle bows out ,slide bent heavy gauge wire inside gap,trip lock mech. and your in.....not sure what they are looking for....they ransacked the inside and took nothing,left me with a frigged up door lock,I think I was lucky in that respect.

Yeah decoy with another Ford and cap 'em! Or just go hang out stealth like at the ramp because you know a lot of other Ford truck will be there every weekend.
