ARHG! I am just catching this! Sorry bro, I do hope she comes back to you in one piece. Hell of a crooked way for a thief to make off with a car. I know here in MD they take car theft pretty seriously and I do not know of one that wasnt recovered. Cali is a much bigger area though so I will keep my fingers crossed for you.
You know, it makes me wonder.... boards like this create a perfect grounds for these sorts of !@#$heads to put together their plan. Speaking as openly as we do with one another about our VXs and even going as far as to getting into where we live, what we do, and some of our lifestyles.... man, really makes me wonder if it isnt possible that this board doesnt work like AutoTrader(Finder) for VXs.
Good luck to ya man. I hope the cops find him before you do. I know I would be irrate. Thats why I carry an 18" Maglite with me everywhere.
