    Shit, this is in AU... I frequently visit the AU/Opelika area and it never seems like this would happen. I'm sorry to hear about this, and hope you catch the bastards and find out how the hell they got in the truck.

    I had an old Topaz where all you had to do was stick a long screw driver up under the door handle, and push the lock up. Newer vehicles are probably harder to get into, but not impossible. They probably had one of the kits the tow truck drivers use.

    Suck!

    A friend of mine was telling me the other day that someone had broken into her car after she'd parked it at a friend's. She noticed a guy with a baggy shirt walking down the street, but didn't pay it much mind until she saw that her door was slightly ajar. Her camera and GPS was gone, but there was no sign of forced entry. The guy was gone by then. She rolls an older Acura. Maybe someone found a way to replicate the signal, but isn't it standard to have rolling codes nowadays?
