Speaking of maybe finding them for sale. Do those gauges have serial numbers?

40mm semi automatic bean bag gun.......the gift that keeps on giving.

those aren't "cool." my buddy got hit with one of those and the cop "shot too low, but was aiming at his solar plexus". My buddy lost a nut over that deal.:eek:

Sorry to hear. I think that as a friend, it would be awfully cruel joke. That friend would get punched in his pie hole if he did that to my truck.

I assume the sensors are still under the hood of your truck? If so somebody will be needing some sensors for what ever gauges you had, Id call autometer & see if they would keep an eye out for somebody ordering those sensors in the northeast.

There are too many house invasions to take a chance and my wife is handicapped so we shoot to kill... you don't know what they are after.... there are too many meth heads around we don't take chances..there have been alot of breakins lately... wife has a 357 and not scared to use it... and we live 30ft from the chief of police. we are not in Tx either, but people from La,Ms and Tx/from the south don't play...

My wife's sister that helps take care of my handicapped wife while i'm on the boat just got raped and left for dead in a field 2 weeks ago the snapped/broke her neck and broke her back.... she is now paralyzed from the waist down and just got out of ICU a few days ago..And they did catch the person .. and now we will be taking care of her cause her shitty husband is going to dump her...we have something instore for him also....

So we shoot to Kill........

Combine tire would work good for a person like that. Think how long it would take to find someone if you put them inside it :thumb:

You haven't been sleep walking and took them out yourself have you? Just kidding. It is probably some kid that you have helped in the past. Seems like anymore when you help someone it ends up costing you one way or another. Hopefully you will find out who did it.

You guys have some great gun control laws in Texas like Benny said here in CT we have to have the mind set of shoot ONLY if you've been shot or are backed into a corner with no way out!

If we'd shoot someone OUTSIDE stealing guages or a barbecue we'd be in jail and the perp would be living in our house. So unfortunately we have to have the mind set of ask questions ,cower,run into the house and call the police and hope they show up for a incident report.
That like the guy who called 911 to report someone breaking into his tool shed and was told that they would send someone out when they had someone available.:confused: Guy calls back and tells 911 that he just shot the thief, (even though he hadn't). Had a swat team there in 2 minutes. Just have to know how to play the game.

Sorry to hear what happened Ben. I agree though never ignore the dog, they usually know when something is up. I'd bet it someone who plans to resell them, probably has or has had the same gauges so he knew exactly what he needed to take. Someone who you have met and probably has a GM truck as well. I don't suppose the police tried to get any finger prints? Or did they even come out?
