    Bump! This was possibly spotted yesterday around Moss Landing.


    Lance, have you looked at this thing? I do believe it is your dream vehicle. REally sucks that the mechanic left it unlocked with the keys on the floorboard.

I won't be able to pick it up until tomorrow morning, but from the officers description the truck is completely undamaged. The windows were left down, and the stereo and all the other contents inside I asked about were still there including an ipod. The officer even started it up using a hidden key I had stashed on the truck so I could hear the motor fire right up and everything.



    Holy happy dance going on right now.



    Thanks to everyone for keeping their eyes peeled and my hopes up....

After 30 minutes of paperwork, a recorded interview, and waiting for the officer to get my truck off the stolen car database, I got to ride in the back of a cruiser to pick up the truck. One of the forms I signed was a form saying that the parking department was waiving all of the tickets the truck had picked up. The truck was sitting in a very visible location next to the track and field stadium at Stanford. When I say highly visible, I mean it was parked in the closest space to the main entrance to the track where hundreds of people come to run everyday. There must have been more than 30 people running on the track when we got there, and every one of them would have walked past the truck to get in. So the truck sat, for almost a full month, with the windows down, in the same spot and did not get molested. Well, there was a spider that had a party in the rear seats and left me some nice webs, but other than that and a thick layer of dust inside and out, the truck is in one piece. The stereo, subwoofer, some tools, and a cd case with a dozen cds/dvds in it were all still there. The only item I know is missing now is my wifes ipod, but now the jackass that stole it is stuck with an ipod engraved with her name on it. The officer hung out while I checked everything out, including the fluids and electrical. It fired right up and I drove it around for a while, everything seems to be as it was when it was stolen. The yahoo drove the truck less than a mile.

    So I took it to the car wash, got it nice and clean and drove it home happily.

    Now for that Sierra Nevada....

    Wow, that's pretty amazing. I wish that if my car ever gets stolen I have a similar story.
