    No. Not much to report. Sadly this shit is going down all over town and the cops won't do anything about it. Was broken into in my driveway over the summer already and never heard anything back after filing a report.

    This time I'm house sitting for my sister in bay shore area and a dude is biking around in -10 weather at 3am trying door handles. Shit is getting out of hand.

    Yeah, it's only a matter of time. Citizens are going to start taking matters into their own hands. Maybe then the City of Anchorage will wake up and do something about it.

    Agreed. I've got surveillance cameras around my house but need to set it up to where it can be viewed remotely from my phone. I'd love to catch someone in the act

    Barcelona Red, thats what i have. Only 2 i know of that made it up here. Im loving mine!

    Shame that cops there arent doing more proactive. A sting would be good for that. Not sure what reatrictions apd is under tho. Maybe a meet and greet with that punk would be better! Ill be down in a few weeks to visit greentree for a bed cage.....maybe i could be the bait :D

    Actually....just like that one! That seems to be perfection for my needs. Cab height for me.

    Yeah luckily he didn't want in that bad. Not that I have anything of much value in there anymore lol.

    Cameras caught two vehicles casing the neighborhood early this morning again. 2-3am trucks rolling through stopping at the end of driveways for a few seconds and then moving to the next one.

    I used to tow one of those tilt deck trailers with my 2nd gen loaded with two sleds, sometimes three with one is the bed. Been all over from Turnigan, lost lake, cantwell, sheep mountain and it towed fine. That was a 6sp manual, but your truck Should do the same. 4wd won't hurt a thing being locked in the entire time. I never used studded tires and ran around a lot of the winter in 4wd. Good luck, I'm sure you'll do fine!
