Re: What to do with people who disrespect your truck

I've had many people do this sort of stuff. If I don't see who it is, I dispose of the trash properly & feel better that @ least some shmuck didn't just toss it out the window. If I do know who did it, I take the trash & put it in a small trash bag (grocery store bag) & then place it on their porch, hood, locker..... whatever it takes to deliver the message.

Don't do anything destructive. It won't make the situation better. If they see their trash has been returned, they know that you know.

Re: What to do with people who disrespect your truck

I would go to the shop and get some dynamite and a bag of anfo, but thats just me. Seriously I've had to deal with scum like this. He is just pushing you. Whooping his ass makes you feel better, sitting in jail because of it sucks. Couple of years ago I did that and got a police controled time out for a couple nights, Sucked. Losing place to live sucks, but on the other side, he is harrassing you. Get proof that he is doing it and use it to make him stop. He's trying to see what he can do to you and how far he can push you, maybe he's trying to get you to move out, or looking for a reason to make it hard on you. Just my 2cents

Re: What to do with people who disrespect your truck

Make no mistake about it. This is a game with him. Just like 67_C-30 and the guy at work. He was doing it because he was envious and he thought he could get by with it because he was older. A polite request to stop only made it worse. The only way to stop it is confrontation. You need to stay within the law, and revenge tactics will only make you the "bad guy". A rather forcefull "Quit putting your fuc*ing trash in the back of my truck" should suffice. If he denies it. Tell him you've seen him do it. Stand your ground, don't provoke a physical confrontation, but don't backoff until he gets the point. If he still doesn't stop fill his car full of garbage (nothing with your name on it). And be prepared to "throw down". Make sure he starts it though.

Really, it went into the drain---Now the poor wash guy not only has to tear up the drain, but shovel it out too. See how this cascades to a hellish mess. if I was the poor wash guy, I would be talking about you on the carwash forum.

Re: What to do with people who disrespect your truck

Are you willing to be forced out of your apartment? If he is your landlord he has that power. He shouldn't be throwing anything in the back of your truck without your permission, but it sounds like there is some communication between you and him. Expalin it to him again, then let it go. If he continues, call the law and begin a paper trail. Support your allegations with video. Show the landlord what you are doing. Show him the pictures and video. That is usually all it takes to make anyone quit. It worked for me and some neighborhood hoodlums. People don't like being caught in the act for all to see.

If all of this fails, just continue to empty the trash, don't say a word. Let all the hoopla die down and then find his Benz away from from your apartment and then key it beyond $500 deductable damage. It won't take much. Just don't get caught. If your are persistant, you won't and you will get that good feeling of retribution that you are looking for.
Benz parts are expensive.

10 lbs of kitty litter/oil dry will go down a car wash drain without ever hitting the sides. 10 lbs of kitty litter is NOTHING compared to the tons (yes, literally) of mud that goes down those drains from the 4X4 crowd that washes 200 lbs of mud off their trucks regularly. Maybe its different here, but car washes around here have 8" pipes going directly into the sewer.

You are right to some degree, but not all of that mud goes to the sewer, if it did, then the city would be working large time to keep that area of the city clean. I see a lot of carwash guys shoveling out their scuppers and traps in my area. That kitty litter is small potatoes to that extent, BUT why add it to some other guys responsibility. So that is MY point and observation on this discussion, the carwash guy has no ball in this game, so leave him out of it. The more crap you dump on him the more he charges for your wash job. If you want to dispose of the litter, there is a trash dumpster available or give it back to the guy that gave it to you Where it really belongs.

I do see what you're saying. I would have probably washed it out on the landlord's property especially since he had agreed to clean up my truck after using it.

I might throw trash all over his yard, his car, and maybe even HIM, but a gun would not be part of the equation.

Re: What to do with people who disrespect your truck

MOVE! I got stupid people that come and go from in front of my house but not enough to make me mad enough to break laws. It makes me very angry but I like to keep my level head. Don't let someone else's mindwarp become yours. Bummer. I could come up with a bunch of ideas to deteriorate someone else's vehicle but you just got to stoop lower than they already are. MOVE ON and find a place that has cool neighbors that like your truck and appreciate you for being there neighbor for not disrespecting them.

Ain't life just a big cookie?
You know your post here is really bugging me, for one a CAR WASH is a place where you go and pay money to WASH your CAR! That is what it is there for, its intended purpose, its reason for existance, and the reason the carwash has a sump in the middle of the floor, is so it can catch all of the dirt and mud that falls off of your vehicle, so as that it does not plug up the drain.

Further more, when you get your truck muddy, what do you do with it, you take it to the CAR WASH. Where you wash the mud off of it. l

Now if you look at Cat litter, what is it made out of, well mostly Bentonite, and what is Bentonite? ITS FRIKIN CLAY!

So, I digress, paying some one to utilise thier car wash, which is the intended purpose is a very very far cry from borrowing some ones truck, and then filling it full of your **** garbage because you are a holier than though mother %$#@er, who doesnt have enough common courtesy to respect some one elses hard earned property.

In fact, if the car wash were *****ing about people coming there to wash things off thier cars such as mud, or in this case kitty litter, well they would soon be out of buisness because people would go elsewhere with thier buisness.

As far as the OP though, Really I do think you should move some place else and leave the guy looking for a new tennant, get yourself a place you can park your rigs with out some one jacking with them, it just isnt right.

I'm with you on this. I was just messing around about doing stuff to his car. Just confront him in front of some people, so you have witnesses. just my $0.02.

Re: What to do with people who disrespect your truck

Well guys like I said I dont park my truck there anymore. I have to agree with the car wash stuff on how we do pay to use there wash. How many people take their motors, cars that are covered with mud and sand...then like was aid the 4X4 guys and their mud, sand and clay. If we want to get technical on my wrong doing....the kitty litter had sat in the back of my truck soaking up trans fluid. Then rained on. There was still alot in the back of my truck....but not 10 lbs. Everyone of us here has taken a car or truck...or even a atv to a car wash and washed it off. Left mud sand dirt oil gas and whatever else there. So not everyone is guilt free of going to a car wash to clean their vehicles. If I would have had a hose close to the driveway at the apartment...I would have used it and it would have been in his driveway. I would have made sure I sprayed it out right where he walks. I am looking for a house out in the country now to get the hell out of there. I want a place with a garage and a barn. I dont want neighbors.

Bugging you???? You are welcome for the moment. Did it make you feel upset and enraged? I stated my comments to make a point---leave Everyone else out of the issue and DEAL with it. The landlord will win in the long run, JUST because he IS the landlord. If one wants vengence then go for it, just be willing to go with the result. You want results, then hold his rent until you have his attention and then tell him to leave your vehicle alone. There are such things as Renters Rights, but they are only as good as those that uphold them. You will end up moving, before it is over---just my guess.
