Well, got to wake-up this morning to a surprise... a gaping hole in my top and shit scattered all over my car. Someone cut the top, broke the console and ransacked the car. Nothing to get but an ipod in the glove box and a gps in the console, but they managed to break the sliding lid on the cup holders, since they were to dumb to figure out the sliding part and tried to pull-up on it. Retards.
If I didn't have enough reasons to move from DeSoto, I just got another good one.
Sigh...
That sucks...... :(
Damn sorry to hear that.
That's terrible. Hope your deductible isn't too high. If you ever wanted that IL Motorsports console maybe now's the time to get it. Also if your top was vinyl, like mine, holes may have started to develop, like mine. So maybe a cloth top is in your future. Anyway, just trying to make the best of a bad thing. Sorry ozmdd.
That sucks Mike. I know you were just talking about those problems yesterday. Hope you get to move soon!
That sucks, i had a friend have his house robbed last night too. :(
Sorry to hear this. Make lemonade.
Thanks everyone. I'll figure out a way to make lemonade, no doubt. Hopefully, this constitutes my bad luck for the year! :)
Wow, sorry to hear the bad news, but I am looking forward to the lemonade. Make mine Lynchburg, please. ;)
House down the street for sale ;) Come up to suburbia!
:(
That sucks man, just be glad that it wasn't anything irreplacable
Sorry to hear that, Mike! :( Hope you can get everything taken care of without too much of a hassle.
I know when I owned my Miata and drove it to UTA regularly, I changed my comprehensive deductible to $100 (they didn't offer a zero deductible, or I would have chosen that). Thankfully I never needed to use it, but I highly recommend a low comp deductible if you own a convertible.
I leave my doors unlocked so they do not cut my top, but I know others have done the same and still had their top cut because the crook assumed the doors were locked.
+1 We also make sure the Miatas are locked up the the garage every-night after we had some issues with thieves in the past. The only car that sits outside it the RAV4 which I could give less than a rats ass about. ;)Quote:

Honestly, when I parked at UTA I parked in the parking garage, and often as not I just left my top down and didn't leave anything in my car.Quote:

We had some kids a few months ago go down our street and shoot about every other car's window out with a pellet gun.
Luckily mine wasn't touched. I thought about picking up a car cover for security reasons. I doubt anyone would go through with the trouble of breaking into a car that they can't see into, but you never know...
Don't forget his Ninja Sword! ;)Quote:

This is why I love the bait car.
Man that SUCKS... so they got the Special Edition Research Now iPod? ;)
Maybe you should keep a Doberman inside the car at night.
So sorry to hear about that. You need a barking dog... a friend of mine who is a cop said that is better than an a alarm. Most people dont pay attention to car alarms anymore, but a barking dog they will check on.
Hope the rest of your year is better. It can't get any worse.
