TRX Stollen Auburn Hills Mi with Ravelco

So it’s my fault that there are scum bag people out there who make a living out of taking advantage of hard working people.
No - but it's your fault for KNOWING that there are scumbag people out there who make a living out of taking advantage of hard working people., and not DOING anything to guard against it.
 
Agreed. I haven’t really kept up with new vehicle prices since I already had my dream vehicle but damn I paid $76k msrp for a tr1, bed utility, remote start. A regular 1500 Laramie is about $65k now! I’m disillusioned right now. I’ve always had fast fun cars since I was 18 years old. Now at 38 years old maybe it’s time to be a grown up. You just can’t have nice things anymore in this day and age.
You can still have nice stuff......but we all just have to understand the emerging risks and do what we can to mitigate those risks. Life is dangerous!
 
Really I have never had an issue, knock on wood.
It’s actually common for mopar paddles to do the opposite when pressed, 2 of my hellcats randomly did it, Redeye didn’t… yet

Hush your mouth! You're still a puppy. Keep fighting against growing up, even when you get to be my age (which will take you awhile).

My advice is as long as you can afford nice toys and your wife (if married) lets you have them, keep buying.
 
My TRX was stolen two nights ago from in front of my house. Broken glass and gone in about 45 seconds. No leads. Already counting it as a total loss. Had it almost 3 years and I know I’ll never own one again because I know it’s too late to find another. I’ll miss it.
Sorry to hear that. I feel your pain.

sorry to hear that. Mines been gone a little over a week and just starting to think more clearly. This is really getting out of hand. Crime is out of control and anyone who has anything nice is at risk. Unfortunately, this seems part of the socialist agenda and why no one seems to care. The left thinks you shouldn’t have nice things and it’s not fair to others. Biden was more apologetic for calling the illegal who murdered a young girl an illegal than outraged that a young life was taken away. I don’t mean to get political but I’m getting really frustrated with this bs. Rant over.
On a better note, if you want to replace it, there are lots of options out there.
 
i don’t really think what I’m saying is political vs. just reality. When you have a catch and release atmosphere when it comes to crime(especially vehicles) of course its going to become common place and not slow down. Having said that since it is not priority for that to change you have to be proactive to keep what is yours without putting yourself in jail because in that case it won’t be catch and release.
 
I was just reading a post on this forum the other day. The members profile caught my eye because his screenname appeared to be his real first and last name. That by itself isn't a big deal, but right under his name was his street address with a Google Maps hyperlink. I took a look at his post history/pics: He parks his TRX under a carport with no aftermarket security! I don't know, maybe he's doing it to bait someone into stealing his truck, so he can bust a cap in their ass. Most likely, he's just not using his head.

The above example is extreme, but until WE take responsibility for keeping our shit, theft is going to continue to spiral out of control. Hoping for the police or the federal government to change laws that will somehow deter this behavior, is a flawed strategy...it's just not going to happen.

He's definitely feeding his gators with people coming to take his hennycats 🤣. Scary how much info can be found so easily on the web. Not to mention if you put it all out there smh 🤦

So you know who I'm talking about. :cool:

Sorry that you have the mentality to victim blame. Thankfully I wasn’t car jacked so my family wasn’t put in danger for a material item.

Luckily I have full coverage and blue book on the truck is $83k-88k. Truck is paid off, pink slip in hand.

I doubt the truck is found in one piece. I’m just going to get a regular vehicle to replace it for the time being.
Huh? Sorry to hear about your truck but if you didn’t have any security on it, you were asking for trouble. Your argument about being blamed for scum bag people doesn’t make any sense. It’s akin to leaving a $100 bill on the ground on the subway and blaming others for your carelessness when it disappears. You’ve been on this forum since 2020…..

That's a reach. 😂 Dude didn't leave the keys in his truck with it running.

I see you are the only one not getting what I am saying, and would have tried elaborating on my point if you were 10 yrs old. At 38 you should know better, and instead of playing the victim card you own your mistake and do better going forward. Or get a 2001 Tercel and tell yourself "we can't have nice things anymore"...Any way, good luck to you and I hope it all works out.

Until we put the right folks in office that allow immediate painful execution of Car thieves, Rapists, Murderers, etc. I think we will need to take the right precautions.
 
He was banned there too 🤷‍♂️
Dude I told you! It’s a small group over there (probably the same dude with multiple profiles) that as soon as you mention the name they come around with pitch forks lol. They’re content watching somebody’s 392 get taken in broad daylight as long as he/she doesn’t mention that damn Russian alarm system …ridiculous 🤡 show

So you want a dictatorship like NK, Russia, China, etc. Interesting point of view.

Nah. Not a dictatorship. Just a system where criminals are actually punished. Rapists, murderers, kid diddlers, 9x19 to the forehead. $0.30 a round. That would save the tax payers a lot of money and rid the earth of vile animals masquerading as human beings. As for thieves engaging in GTA, immediate amputation of the dominant hand and 5 years in prison to figure out what to do with the remaining hand and the chance to become a contributing member of society. I believe in second chances 🤣

Yeah, its ok man. I am not disagreeing with some of your comments, but I came here to talk about TRXs and I respect everyone's religion and political opinions. All good my brother. I apologize for bringing up the dictator comment.

BTW, I am one of the many that bought a Ravelco. Spent 3 nights at a B&B this week in Texas and the owner swung by in his sweet 2024 2500 AEV, and guess what he had for security.....oh boy.
