Damn a thief!


I'm glad I didn't catch the weasel dick fuuckheads or I might be jail right now.

You aughta be able to blow their knees out with a 9mm as they run off but of course you be the one in trouble.



Might get here next week.


Hopefully there will be some good Black Friday tool deals, perfect time to get robbed......grin.

Had the same trouble here last year Sam. Like you I wasn't overly dialed in about theft protection in my driveway and sure as hell one of the nights I didn't lock the truck some douche got $500 binocs and an arm load of odds and ends for another couple hun.
We bought an Arlo two camera system after that and its been good. Couple months after we got it I caught onother little rat [bleep] on camera, quite a bit smaller than the footprints from the first guy. I recognised him down town near the bad bar. I drove my truck straight at him got him by surprise and we had words. Long story short he sang like a bird they he was an addict.... he'll never do it again... he's gonna sign up for detox.. pretty sure he pissed himself, lots of witnesses so I left it at that.
No one's been back since. Can check from your phone you can view live from anywhere you can even talk to the fugger if u see him. haha Siren thingy too.

Someone could probably steal my whole house and I wouldn't care, but if they ransacked our pole barn I'd be crying


Maybe this will let you see the light and switch to Milwaukee... Grin

Sam, sorry about the thieves. That sucks.

Highway Products has always been on the drool list, particularly with freight costs from one coast to the other. I was just looking at their fifth wheel box for the new truck. I’ve been slumming JOBOX and Weather Guard boxes. Weather Guard makes a good box.

This FORD is so damn tall, I’m considering ordering a Martin gooseneck service body. I almost ordered one last year for the GMC.

Salty, I REALLY want to get a camera!

I am curious.





Ben, that pickup is my shop!

It got raped by a common tweaker, trying not to dwell but it's hard.

The stupid fuuckers missed some choice chit though.

AND they didn't get in the cab. The cab BTW is currently empty of all goodies.

Going full lockdown until the camera and new toolbox show up.

you got counted coup on

woop woop

Thefts been big over here too. Don't matter where you are I don't think. Meth is whack!

methheads need to be put under the same program as Cougars... S.S.S.

At least they were respectful.......


Didn't make a mess, even closed the lids when they got done which was nice because it was snowing. 3-4 years ago the latch broke on drivers side so we've used a tarp strap. Thieves didn't figure out how to shut it with the strap so they left a 4lb hammer on it.

Our worktrucks have RimRock's in them. RimRock Mfg. If the guy's are too far from home to drive, they get left at the airport for a week at a time. They work really good in a tall truck and you can pile schiett on them and still use the toolbox.

Brian, this place has 'free' shipping.

Yeah, the new pickups are retarded tall.
(I can't afford one but....)


Nice thing about this box is that it is short on the sidewall when you open it.

Those are sweet. Are they dry?

Those boxes are getting pricey, gotta start worrying about the whole thing getting stolen

You Tube Booby traps and find a non-lethal using marking dyes. Infernal devices that cause injury are illegal in most places, but you can stain a booger eater purple or hot pink that is very difficult to remove. Combine that w/ a video record and put the turd in jail.

That's what I was just thinking.


Go outside and the entire [bleep] is gone!



Luckily our tweakers couldn't pull it off here.
(knock on wood.....)

I'd be inclined to bolt it in with nylock nuts on the inside of the box. Even if you were away or something and they got underneath with an electric wrench they can turn till the cows come home it ain't coming off. Its a kick in the nuts all right since I got hit I think like a thief now and design 3 or 4 steps that would fug the average tweaker up to a successful hit at chateau Salty any more!

Actually looking at the pic bolting it in may be easier said than done, nothing as bad as a fugged up tractor puking hoses in the cold tho. lol

Between buying the new box, and replacing the tools, that was an expensive experience. Hopefully you don’t have to deal with those sticky fingered fuggers anymore.

Sam,

I don't have the crossbox but I have what they call a partner box bolted down just inside my truck bed at the tailgate. They made this box with special dimensions for me so to do what I needed in a box.

They build the best diamond plate boxes I have seen. Weatherguard makes a good steel box and is what we used on our pickups for our construction business, and they also make a great product.

Bummer, Sam. Too bad you don't have a dog!

Yeti cooler effect.....

Not sure of your hood, but from the sounds of it, I'd bet local kids. Sneak out for some highschool poon and do a little car hopping.

Either way it sucks azz.

If its a meth monster, i hope he's dumb enough to try and sell local.
