I usually don't park on the street when it snows or something, or on weekends cause some drunk redneck or some soccer mom would rear end me knowing my luck..

Normally I would chuckle after reading this but it has become all too common to get foul words thrown my way when I pull up in front of the parts house in an import.


You'd be suprised how many of the "good ol' boys" blame those of us that drive imports for the plethora of things that are going wrong right now. It wouldn't suprise me a bit if some dill-holed-jack-of-no-trades knocked that mirror off.

lol, most of the back-woods-red-necks around here like my truck, or at least they put on the front about it when they see me out and on the trails or hang'n around the mud holes watch'n them break their gimungous Fords and Chevy's, lol

untill I have to pull one out

honestly, I would lean more toward the Jeep guys around here doing something like that

You do know why jeep folks throw eggs don't you?

If they are on the trail about the only thing they throw is parts, on the street most of them are mall crawlers and are usually coming back from the grocery store, where we all know we need dual ARB's to get over the speed bumps, and they are upset that someone has a rig that cost 10% of theirs and goes 90% farther on the trail.



Of course you do know why Toyota drivers don't throw eggs don't you?

It's because our arms are tired from throwing tow straps to jeeps.

I'd be a little worried about installing BOTH new mirrors so soon -- a day after someone messed with your truck. Reason being, say they come back, and see new mirrors, that sends the message that their efforts aren't bothering you, and they will proceed to break off both mirrors, and likely cause body damage. I know a mirror is something required to be street legal, but, replacing both could cause you more problems, if someone decided to pay you a visit again (assuming the egging of your truck a week prior was a related incident). Good work on the alarm, though.

Hope it works out!

oh and the alarm works good, lol

I had it armed today at work, and a thunder storm rolled in, and it set it off like 3 times, so I finally just shut it off

might have to turn the sensitivity down just a hair, lol
