Awright; who took my truck?

Good point, Montana. It being a Ford, the combined value of the gas and tool box are probably greater than that of the truck...

First, the damn gas was probably run out the first ten minutes. This is a Ranger super cab, automatic. Meaning, if you want to drive on a single tank you have to fit a siphon hose to a 55 gal drum in the back. Second, of course it's a piece of shi- -dootie. But, it was all I had to use on my job. Now, mrs edgarblythe will have to drive me in before going about her routine.

Edgar, I guess I hadn't taken you seriously last night. I'm sorry it was stolen. Sometimes it's not so much about the thing that was stolen as it is that some one actually stole from you. When it's happened to me (not often) it's made me feel depressed.

I called the law and my insurance company. The law finally came, after about two or maybe three hours. The officer informed me I can't turn it in stolen, because the lien holder still has the title. The lien holder couldn't be contacted. I left a message on his phone and sent him an email. I will resume trying to contact him at eight AM. So, the car is not listed as stolen, and the thief has had twelve hours free use so far.

I thought Barney and Andy lived in North Carolina.....

Just yanking your chain, eb. Hopefully it works out for you. I came out ahead in a total-loss insurance payout a few years back. I hope you get the same (if you don't get the truck back).

Just between you and me, patiodog, I hate that truck. A good payoff would be my favorite solution.

I had a truck like that to that was totalled in an accident and I was glad to take the $ and buy my nice white camaro :-D I loved that car and was very sad to see her go.

Good luck with everything, Edgar.

Thanks, Montana and everybody who voiced concern. I have been trying to speak with the man who holds the title to the truck since last night. He turned off his cell phone, and his kids informed me he's out of town. Officially, the truck's not stolen.
