If someone stole mine, I'm not sure I'd want it back, but I'd feel better if I found out that they wrapped it around something solid and were killed, or going to spend the rest of their life eating through a straw from the accident. I guess I'm just bitter like that though.(IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
What did the police have to say? |

What use are cops, other than as another form of taxation...
VATS was not disabled. I know from the neighbor who was home when the car was taken that it wasn't started, so hence the dent puller assssumption. Some part of me still wants the car back. It was my first new car, and it has many, many hours of my blood sweat and tears. I realize the longer it goes without recovery the less likely any sort of recovery is.... Maybe the best thing to hope for at this point is that they find the shell in 20 days and I can buy it back from the INS company cheap as a starter AI car :-| Jason S.

THIS is what was stolen, and IMHO should be insured against (well, plus dip thongs that don't carry insurance). All the little stupid crap I'll pay for out-of-pocket. I can buy CDs to invest my "Car Boo-Boo costs" payment money in. Just like fuel and oil change and new tires costs, fender-bender dings that cost less than $2K should be a factor in car ownership. When my pride and joy and life's work is taken from me by punks, I want my insurance to "make me whole" again. THAT'S how insurance should work.
Again, Jason, I'm so sorry to hear this news. Christine QUOTE (Unbalanced Engineering @ Nov 30 2006, 06:04 PM)  Some part of me still wants the car back. It was my first new car, and it has many, many hours of my blood sweat and tears. Jason S.

Wondered what could be said other than, "Sorry". Finally realized that for people who put as much of themselves in their cars as most of us do, the crime is closer to kidnapping than it is to simple theft. The sense of loss and violation is more personal than just the monetary and material loss. Perhaps you'll be one of the fortunate few to get your car back whole. In any event, be sure that those here understand the sense of loss you are feeling. Hope your luck improves.

I guess I can relate although on a smaller scale. I was heart broken when my car was keyed earlier this fall so I know how that kind of stuff feels sorry man.

I remember when my car was almost stolen from in front of my house 2 days after I got it, and I was pretty mad. Then I remember when my car was keyed on christmas eve last year and I felt sick to my stomache. I cant imagine what I would feel like if it was acually gone, thankfully its no motor in it right now. I hope the insurance company takes good care of you and maybe you can find something else that makes you happy.

For the most part, I generally refrain from attempts to say anything comforting or whatever, because I've learned that I suck at it. So, "what he said". |

sorry about your loss Jason
on the topic of cars being keyed, I might hold the record of 'how soon after purchuse did you got your car keyed' award. I had a car for 18 hours, day after I bought it, and she got keyed in the DMV parking lot while I was registering her inside. The next car we bought, basically a part chaser to run around town in, we bought pre-keyed. Nice long scrach all the way down the side. |

That really sucks. I hope they find it and in 1 piece. I know how you feel. My 04 Dodge Ram was recently stolen, with my spare set of keys to my Camaro inside. About 1 month went by and I was actually walking out the door to go and buy a new Ram when the phone rang. It was the CHP and they had found my truck. It was missing the front clip and hood. The back window was broken out so I replaced it witha slider and the I replaced the hood witha SRT 10 hood. My truck is actually going to be better than before. I can also take some satifaction that the guy whom stole my truck is now sitting in jail. Not only was he busted for grand theft, but they also charged him with having a meth lab in his house and possesion. The SOB had a needle in his arm when the cop busted him. They also condemned his home and bulldozed it down. I wish I could have been the one driving that tractor.

As I have mentioned before on this board horsethieves were hanged by our forefathers. Wonder what our forefathers would do with these car-keyers? I would really like to know.........I like the gettin' "medieval on your ass" philosophy! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/whip.gif)

Thanks again guys and gals. If I have anything to report, I'll start another thread. I just wanted to say thanks, at least with you guys I know that someone else out there has the same feelings for their car(s) that I had for mine. To most people their car means as much to them as a couch or chair. Not so with us.

Sorry to hear about the loss, Jason.
I hate to tell you this, but it's very hard to get over the loss of a car or motorcycle like this. I haven't replaced my street-legal Yamaha IT250 yet, and it still hurts, even after sixteen years. It was stolen on Christmas day, of all things. About the only way to do it is by purchasing something that is more exciting than the first one. ...Might I suggest an LS1? It might help ease the sting. |
