I will definitely keep an eye out in Utah and through my FJ45 connections. This sucks!!!

 

[Land Cruiser Junky]

This is terrible news Phil. Sorry for your loss and will keep an eye out as well.

Reno's on alert. Hope I run into these aholes...got a few mine shafts that need filling.

Will keep an eye out in SoCal. My truck was stolen in Nov, recovered in Feb had been spray painted a different color! Keep up hope, and keep in mind you might be looking for a slightly different truck!

I will keep my eyes out here in Tucson.
I had my 85" Toyota EFI 4X4 stolen a few years back so I know how you feel.
Luckily, the police found it 4-5 months later and I got it back.
Hopefully, you will get yours back too.

I hope you get these back. This makes me sick and pissed off at the same time. I can only imagen how you feel. I keep checking this hoping for good news. I will be lookimg for them in my area.

Seems like a planned job. It is quite a job to steal the items you say were there. They weigh a lot, need trailers, and had to be a fairly quick job. I certainly hope and pray somehow they make a mistake. I have read this and will keep in my mind first before anything.

 

[Doug89]

This is really disappointing Phil. I'll be scouring Craigslist. Helped 3 others in recovering stolen rigs. Let's make this 5 rigs recovered. Hope to see you on trail sooner than later.

Update?

Update?

As a matter of fact, yes

On Monday, the CHP recovered the 45 from a tweaker house in Grayson, Ca.
I am extremely happy .

It was entirely unmolested.

Thanks to Georg @orangefj45 , it is now safely parked indoors waiting for a ride home.

WOW!!!! That's amazing, I can imagine how you must have felt a) losing it, probably expecting the worst and, b) getting it back!

Congratulations Phil, these stories don't usually end this way. Right on!

 

[navydivedoc]
