I don't know how big the town is where you live but it might be worth calling some local pawn shops in the area and see if they have any zips that have come in and go check them out. That totally blows man, I feel your pain.

Man I hate that theives suck man I had two guys load a built wheelin tranny from right outside my garage...I was in the truck before they were out of sight...I don't know the statute of limitations so I'll just say we finished our little talk lol
What the hell is in a first aid tit that would be even worth stealing? Weird
I highly doubt it's the same individual to drive,walk,bicycle 15 miles to steal a first aid kit IMO. Thieves are thieves I guess and do the weirdest things.
I live in a decent area myself and had a vehicle stolen out of my driveway and for some reason lately I've been paranoid. This theft happened years ago and lately I've had this gut feeling about my truck (Duramax) stolen . My wife works nigts,second shift, that when she comes home at 11 PM I have here park in front of my truck blocking it in. It's a big pain in the ass having to move it when I have my truck home but it allows me to sleep better.
I installed a hidden kill switch in my Jeep as they are targets for parts . The times I've gone away in my Dually with my trailer I've been known to disconnect the big bale connector under the hood for added theft protection. It really sucks to have to live paranoid. But you have to protect the valuable items some how.
Hopefully Tom they'll bug off as it sucks to have to worry about this crap ,good luck.

make sure you disconnect BOTH. A duramax will still start with one of them disconnected. (I wouldnt have believed it myself If I didnt see it with my own two eyes) I forget whether its the top one or bottom one that actually kills it.
Do you live or work in the ghetto lol.
You wernt able to jack his bike from him when you knocked him off it? I would have lol. I would have gave it to the cops and said heres the get-away vehicle. He'd have to go to the cops to get his ride, which is prolly stolen property to begin with.
As far as the first aid kit, thats a golden item to some of these guys. They are druggies and think there will be syringes in them.
Do you lock your doors to your truck? How are they getting in so easy?

I've never seen a first aid kit with a syringe in it.
I can't speak for Tom but I always lock my truck NOW. I use to be more lenient but given todays economy I always shut it off and lock it when going into a store even for a second,ditto at home. Sucks

Neither have I but Im not a dumb ass trying to steal peoples stuff out of their truck all drugged out, if I were, I may think that there would be a syringe in a first aid kit
^nice mike! Where I live everything is always unlocked, and I live under the impression that if someone wants in they are coming in...rather not have them break my window/house door/ whatever.....but my wife and I both carry and we can handle our own.
Luckily it's a rural community where everyone knows everyone and knows what everyone drives. It's kind of nice really, I can't tell you how many times a neighbor has called saying hey have you seen this car/truck cruising up and own the road...we all look out for suspicious stuff. But obviously in the city you can't really do that with all the people....my closest neighbor is probably 1/4 mile away.

That sucks Tom sorry to hear that... I would bet on it being the same guy, when my truck got broke into when I was overseas they left 3 pairs of oakley's a glock 21 and my welding shit in the truck, all they took was my radar detector and my registration.
My pops gets up at about 0130 everyday and sits in garage and drinks coffee tell about 0530. He said for about 3 weeks after the break in there would be a car go buy dead slow around 0200 everyday he assumed it was the punks scoping the place. I was wishing he the punks would try something, and let a retired 33 year active duty 3 tour vietinam vet have some fun. His house is locked down tight and ready for some shit bags.

My friends moms truck was broken into a couple years back and she had all sorts of luggage in it. The only thing that was missing were her underwear
I cant believe they busted out a window just to steal some really big underwear.

That works in theory, but I know of at least one incident when it didn't. Several years ago, my step brother drove a Jeep Wrangler with a soft top. He always left it unlocked because he knew it wasn't very secure anyway. Well, one night when he had it parked in the parking lot of the apartment complex he lived in some low-life decided to break in and steel his stereo. The idiot apparently didn't try the door because he decided to cut the window. He cut himself in the process and bled all over the interior, so not only did my step brother's stereo get stolen but his window was cut and he had blood all over his driver's seat.
