Are you a changed man now, are you gonna trade your truck in on a prius? Thats a pretty compelling argument. :rotflmao

Great spelling skills there......

Indeed! Altho Justin I gotta say you should be glad you only got this friendly message, as some of them tree-huggers are so effed in the head they will resort to vandalism to get their point across :mad: Personally I'd be on the lookout, and next time someone decides to leave a nice little note on your windshield you make damn sure it was the last note they'd be able to write for a while :backoff

i agree with LCAM-01XA, my truck got keyed, some one put *** up the pass door pillar and ***** undr my pass side windown and enviroment ruiner down the box side. i wish i found who did it. there was 3400 dollars in damage on the one side alone. and i live in a city of roughly 25000ppl so everyone knows my truck which kinda sucks. just keep an eye out for the next while cause i first had a paper note that had the same writing and about 2 mths later i got keyed. it was at walmart but i was parked in the middle of the parking lot so the security cameras literally just missed my truck when we went to see if you could see it in there.

Haha, it's kind of funny if that's as far as it goes. Some of the other stuff people have had to deal with here is decidedly not funny in the least bit. Seriously what does anyone think gives them the right to even touch your truck without your knowledge or permission?

That isn't even funny. If someone is brazen enough to leave a note on your windshield, they are brazen enough to put brake fluid or iodine in your fuel tank.

Most everyone that knows me, knows NOT to screw with my gear. People are scared to go get tools from the truck when I say "yep, that screwdriver you want to borrow is on the seat of the pickup". They won't even go near it. I like it that way, but if I ever caught anyone screwing with or vandalizing my truck....I would hook the tow chain to their car and roll it over......and that's if I was calm enough to not break their nose without saying a word.

Do you have an alarm system on that thing? It might be time to look at one....even a $200 dollar alarm is better than a motor job.

A pasture fencer works when attached to the body. Don't ask how I know.

With the dented truck I ride I don't get these problems, but I also made sure to put locking fuel caps on, and have a sliding bar in the doors and an extra lock on the hood. I learned these tips from when I was in college and had my 73 Ford messed with, they even tried breaking off my locking gas cap. Since they didn't succeed, I knew they were dumb punks since they didn't even manage that, but I took the welder and made a few special improvements in order to save things a little.

And considering that most tree hugger vehicles get crap mileage, what the hell do they have to cast stones at? My beast is a quarter century old and gets better mileage than some of their cars SHOULD be getting! Consider the Subaru awds, the Nissan Exterras (the X drives a 2002, and all she gets is about 14mpg when I was pushing 21 mpg out of my 89 GMC 4wd with 5.7 auto, and a loaded lock box in back) and all those cute little "crossover" jobs that suck with mileage.

People suck

This is SO true but no one who don't have a clue would believe it.

My girlfriend's partents bought a 2010 F150 that had the "government's pick for top fuel rating" for 2010. That truck, when driven like an old man would drive it, gets about 16 MPG. I KNOW by reading posts on here that some of your 20 year old FACTORY trucks got that kinda milage in the 1980's.

All this particulate filtering, cat converters, exhaust regeneration, and EGR BS is making for cleaner emissions at the end of the tailpipe....but a LOT more cleaner emissions than our trucks would emit. Our trucks might be "polluters", but we don't burn NEAR the amount of fuel that the new trucks would go through for the most part.
