    They came for mine last night.
    Nothing is missing from what I can tell.
    Still waiting on the police. Last time it took them over 4 hours to show up.
    Console is closed. But even if they did go through it, there’s only like $20 in cash in there for Causeway toll fees. Doubt they took the cash and then put the lid back. So nothing is gone. Gym bag with climbing gear is still in the back. They didn’t touch my camper shell.
    I’m betting they weren’t some junkie or kid trying to steal my stuff like last time, but someone attempting to take the entire truck. Not sure. They broke that glass pretty efficiently though.
    Glad I was paranoid and used two different steering wheel club locks; may have wasted them some time and saved my truck.
    Any tips on getting a new window today?
    Hoping insurance will send someone over to install but doubt it.

    Sorry to hear. Most of the break-ins I hear about are 1)Quick money for the next fix. 2)Looking for guns. 3)vehicle for transport or parting. Whith what you have described, I think it was probably #3 and it was more complicated than they wanted. Might have been scared off as well (if they didn't get to sifting inside). Not sure where to get the glass from, but I've used Accurate many times (both insurance and self pay) without issue. They are on L&A, but they come to you.
