    Some weight reduction on my truck...

    Well sorta some damn thieves stole my tailgate and receiver hitch 2 nights ago. I will be watching Craigslist like a hawk for a while. According to the cops it has happened a lot recently.

    Ya for sure. I have thought about an alarm better than the factory one for a long time. (ironic I sell home security) however, it wouldn't have helped me. Now I am for sure getting a locking handle and maybe a bed cover of somekind with a lock as well.

    That sucks bud, someone stole my tailgate and bed covers off the avy, covers were locked and so was the tailgate. Salvage yards don't take just the tailgate in Oklahoma anymore because of that reason, they would buy one, cops would take it because it was stolen. I know because I Called close to 25 yards when I was still there.
    Called the dealership for a laugh to see how much a new tailgate was and they quoted a grand without paint. Just the tailgate.

    Yeah, people are stealing the 08-10 ford F250-350 tailgates right off the dealerships here. They go for around a grand too. Kinda funny, cause i hate dealerships anyway. Karma could you say i guess.

    People will steal anything that isn't nailed down. Whether there's a demand for it or not.
