Re: Did I Stumble Into a Highlander?

Well as my luck usually goes it didn't go exactly as planned...

I drove down to pick the truck up today, when I got there I was greeted with "so you took a bunch of stuff last night?"

NO I said...

Well guess what stuff was missing...

First, the trim in the box, all the good stuff vanished, the crappy bent up shiz was left there..

Second (and the part that sunk my heart) the glove box was raided...owners manual/operators manual/Protect-a-plate and spare trim clips All Gone...I wanted to cry

I know it's not the end of the world but what makes someone steal stuff?

If I would have known (hindsight) I would have grabbed all the stuff in the glove box before I left.

But she's home and got a well deserved bath to get all the tree sap and leaves off!!


Let the games begin...

Dude. That just sucks. Glad the truck wasn't damaged though. Still a bummer. Anyway, welcome to the highlander club, we're a happy bunch. Once you get one, you'll want another...

Re: Did I Stumble Into a Highlander?

Well the sun shined on my backside today...

Got a call from the guy I bought the truck from and the contents of the glove box 'showed up' at the garage he was at.
So I got back the protect-o-plate and original manuals, Dealer checklist (signed 3/19/72)
Plus an atlas from the dealership to the owner (which I thought was cool) and their maps from when they traveled

I'm one happy camper!!

Fargo, ND truck it's whole life, garage kept
The rockers and cab corners are bubbly along with the pass front fender cup

Overall it's a solid truck...good enough where I'm not touching the paint until necessary
