More TRX trucks stolen from SHAP

4, wow. That tells you it's obviously not some dickhead, but an actual group of likely experienced car thieves. Crazy to see "theft rings" like this actually being a thing, as a legitimate income source for people in the USA. Fucking fucks.
I bet you it was Toretto and his crew.
 
It's an inside job imo.
@Fifty what do you think.? This is like 3rd time in 2 months. With the limited info you have but extensive law enforcement experience do you believe this a crime of opportunity or an inside job?
It’s 100% inside. Just like the last set of thefts where they caught them.

But these trucks/cars are not making their way to Eastern Europe and Asia as often as a few years ago.
These Hellcat motors and trans are winding up at dismantlers and hot rod shops.

Look at all the dismantlers with complete drive trains with under 100 miles… and under 5k miles. No damage.
There is no way a totaled vehicle will have a matching engine and transmission. One or the other gets ruined in a front or rear wreck.

Cars/trucks are designed to shed energy which means destroy themselves.

And look at all the hot rods and prerunners usjing Hellcat drive trains now.

The days of the LSX and supercharged corvette are over.
 
Talking to my guys at the plant, no talk of trucks stolen from there. They might have been taken from one of the shipping yards they send TRX's to.
That’s what happened to my 2021 Track Hawk that was released for shipping on Dec 10. Finally told last week it was stolen from shipping yard.

Oh that sucks. I hope they can order you another one before Jeep stops Trackhawk production
 
Anyone have details on this? Says four trucks stolen this morning. With my luck, one was mine since I got a BS a week ago and no WS yet. View attachment 36518
Should’ve stayed after them. Unless the thieves brought gas cans, those trucks didn’t make it very far without fueling up.
 
Car thieves need to dealt with like old-time horse thieves. Done one and you‘re done! Stop the overily lenient court handling of the scumbags! 🤬

Yup. Hang the bastards.
 
No, I’m SOL. Production stopped early in December. Last year for TH was 2021. Mine was one of the last to be built.
Oh damn that blows. I bet the samething going to happen when the Hellcat's get discontinued next year and thieves get more desperate
 
Around here, that's not necessarily the case. It's illegal to shot someone if all they do is walk or drive across your property, but if they're doing something bad...different story.

Also, just about everybody has some sort of gun(s), which is likely part of the reason for why there's very little crime around here.
Here in PURPLE CO, Yes: if they are in your house. No: if they are in your car.

Thankfully, here your car is considered an extension of your house and treated the same.
And they don't need to be in a building or vehicle, just on the property. It's a very old law, and much better than the normal castle doctrine.
 
We ever find out the VIN's of the most recent stolen TRX's?

Hey, imagine that !!!!!!!!
Crime and punishment ?????
Libs say punishment does not work........We have to understand them, sympathize with them, coddle them, hug them.......
 
Keys are always left in the vehicle prior to shipping out on a trailer - when you have 500-3000 vehicles on the property there is no way to track who has the keys - they usually leave them in the cup holder……

Seems like a great opportunity to employ the local PD's off-duty cops. Overtime pay for them, $$ saved for Mother Stellantis, and shorter wait times for purchasers whose trucks would otherwise be stolen.
 
Honestly all issues are a pretty easy fix. Cloning fob solution is a software/hardware update to have a personalized pin before cloning. Repeater box solution would be is not having constant signal being displayed. The other one is the neutral strap which has no good solution unless parking brake always enabled unless key found
