Gerritt Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 Well it looks like my quiet little neighborhood is going to crap! Neighbors car got stolen a month and a half ago... it was found.. trashed 2 weeks later some punks walked up the street slashing tire sidewalls of every car that was parked on the street, including my girlfriends work vehicle.. And now, my girlfriends car was stolen on thursday night.. found yesterday @ 8pm... we brought it home last night.... it was a disaster.. dirty underwear hanging off the rear view mirror, it was CAKED in mud... ignition was laying on the floor... 420.00 to the tow operator... They stole it again last night!!!!! Jesus! OPP called us @ 430am asking where our car was... we said we just got it back, it was in the driveway... the lady on the phone asked us to take another look.. sure enough the car was gone.. this time the punks trashed it into a ditch on the 403 @ Wilson st... I live on a pretty quiet street.. and this has me fuming mad! I am about ready to turn off all the lights and wait with my 30-06 and wait for the buggers.. so now I am looking at another 500.00 charge to the tow company!... so almost 1000.00 down the drain because of a bunch of idiots. /End Rant G
Bernie Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 That sucks G. I'd love to catch them They must know you are asleep at 8 PM too.
Joey Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 Geez Gerritt, that totally sucks. You should install some cameras and catch the dirty brats in the act. Now I'm just as mad as you are I hate crap like that. Joey
misfish Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 When will it go back to the day, when you caught them,gave them some good ole smacks and kicks to the ars, and gave them to the parents so they could smack them again Got some crap going on here to aswell G. Once again,the young offenders act makes them UNTOUCHABLE.
Terry Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 (edited) I feel your pain and that's why I have 8 video cameras around my property and an UZI under my bed ok no UZI but I am looking for one..LOL Edited September 19, 2010 by Terry
GBW Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 Sorry to hear G, I would look into the camera thing for sure!
Woodsman Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 I feel your pain and that's why I have 8 video cameras around my property and an oozie under my bed Terry what the heck is an oozie? Is that when you stub your toe and it bleeds a little? Sure you didn't mean UZI.
Terry Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 well you can tell I really don't own one LOL...
tb4me Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 Considering where you live this doesnt suprise me.I have family there.They have just the same problems. Geez I could only imagine, Man I wouldnt want to live there.Id be in prison by now.
mercman Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 2 pool balls, an old hockey sock, and 15 minutes behind a closed door.I bet they would remember that the next time the urge to be jerks overtook them
ChrisK Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 Sorry to here that Gerritt. Hope they catch them. In our neighborhood everybody owns dogs and they all loose it when someone walks down the street day or night so its pretty safe.
purekgw Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 hey gerrit you still in Caledonia?!?
outllaw Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 totally sucks. i would spend the next 500.00 on moving.
Cast-Away Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 Gerritt spend $100 on CAA+ and you will have no more towing bills!
jbailey Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 ahh most of my family lives in Caledonia and they've had their cars stolen multiple times. More recently my cousin had his engine, gas tank and seats stolen out of his boat.
Headhunter Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 I hear yah G! I pity the poor dude who tries again and you get ahold of 'em... HH
torco Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 Wow that sucks. I'd be moving or building some sort of fortress around my yard?
ColdH20guy Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 [ Once again,the young offenders act makes them UNTOUCHABLE. ?? how so?
Governator Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 (edited) At the very least, I'd put "The Club" on. While it's not exactly professional car thief deterrent I think it would prevent most if not all amateurs. Professionals take your car to sell it, amateurs take them for joy rides & pranks. I would also at at least install motion sensor lights where the car is parked, unless it's on the street. That way you would probably notice when they attempt it.

Spiel Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 Brutal! Should I go shopping for a couple of baseball bats and a box of beer Gerritt........
vinnimon Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 That really sucks Gerrit!Happened to me as well except for the second attempt I poopy(yes poopy trap ) trapped it! But my other car at the same time had the window smashed! They must of known I owned both!
cityfisher Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 thats brutal !! i guess no point going through insurance? deductable too high
solopaddler Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 where do you live? brooklyn ny? Caledonia, stolen car capital of Canada. Considering where you live this doesnt suprise me.I have family there.They have just the same problems. Geez I could only imagine, Man I wouldnt want to live there.Id be in prison by now. That's the sad truth. My dad's truck was stolen in a Costco parking lot a few years back and ended up in....Caledonia. A good friend also had his truck stolen from a Costco parking lot and it also ended up in.....Caledonia. It seems to be a common theme. In any case I'm sorry to hear of your troubles Gerritt.
Uncle Buck Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 have you thought about getting one of those battery disconnects, kills the power, install a key, it closes the circuit giving the vehicle power again? also a friend of the family use to pull the fuse for the fuelpump cause he didn't drive the car often, it stopped it from getting stollen...
