    Sorry to hear man.

    Hopefully:

    1 - It was just a joy-rider and you get it back unhurt with an empty tank and another 300 miles on it

    or

    2 - It's not recovered and you get a 2012


    What sucks is getting it back with enough damage to take a month to fix but it's not a total.

    The service consultant at our dealer told me to keep the Vin# covered. He said that now a day the bad guys takes you-re Vin# and with they-re laptop info, will cut a key right there on the spot and steal your truck. Every since I keep a business card over it.

    Urban legend.

    Try it.

    Dealers are required to see proof of ownership to make a key from a VIN.

    I work out of my truck, and my company pays me mileage. My boss gave us tracking devices that plug into the ODBII port on our vehicles.
    A couple of guys that I work with complain about the boss playing Big Brother, but I see it as free Lowjack. I would shit myself if my Taco was stolen, but at least I can get a good idea of where it is, and have the option to do my own inquiry....
    Rich 91710 hit the nail on the head... look on the bright side, dude.

    Where was it parked? Was the alarm on? Glass on the ground? Any witnesses? Any identifying marks? License plate? In case we see it, don't want to call the PD on the wrong truck.

    Dealers do things by the book, thieves and hackers do as they want. Wonder if this is really possible, might be.

    He's implying the crooks run around with a mobile key cutting machine and cut your key from your vin in the parking lot.
