saytagf Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 As some of you know my 06 black SS was stolen from me at the beach in San Diego on june 3rd. Being as we were 15 miles from the international border i never ever ever expected to see even a piece of that truck ever again. It was a horrible day in my life that easily placed in top spots of worst day ever. To add insult to injury it was stolen while i was surfing. Which means house keys wallet cell phone and of course, CLOTHES were all inside. I got to walk home 3 miles with wet trunks and my board. I allowed proper time for a chance of recovery and after a little over a month i gave up. I couldnt find another SS in good enough condition and i made the impulsive stupid decision of buying an 07 ford fX2 sport. Realized from day one that i never liked that truck. 72 days after the theft of my SS SDPD calls saying my truck has been found...6 MILES FROM MY HOUSE. Insurance had already paid me off and they were rightfull owners of the truck. They were very uncooperative in helping my buy it back and even didnt disclose the location of the auction. I had a freind do a WHOLE lot of detective work and guess what he found....the tiny little dealership in San Diego who bought my truck for $18,500...the only thing missing was the navigation and subs. Yesterday...140 somethign days after my truck was stolen i bought it back. ME AND MY SS HAVE BEEN REUNITED. It's the absolute best feeling int he world and i still feel in shock. Im too scared to drive it untill i get lo-jack. The dealer said this was his first time in 22 years of business that he's ever sold a car back to it's original owner. It feels good to be part of the family again. thought you all would want to hear my story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saytagf Posted October 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 It was in absolute great shape. They took my navigation and my subs and from the means of their removal i could obviously tell they had no clue wat they were doing. I've since moved back to los angeles but then i was living in Pacific Beach...It was this tiny little 3 car dealer callt R&T auto or something of that sort right off market st. by the 15....he even had fixed the little dent i had in the fender...the theives put less then 30 miles on the thing.
