I'm so sick of all these drunk drivers. always hit em up for everything. who cares about morals when it comes to dui's. i'm so sick of hearing all these stories about dui's...the drunk never gets killed it's always everyone else involved.

A little late
Sorry about your tuck man. I walked out to find my '83 gone one morning. lift tires, winch, bumbers... you know how the list goes. I had 280k on the engine and never thought someone would drive off with it. To make a long story short got totally burned on the insurance. It was pretty much a total loss on my part.
It took me a year, but I just started building an 87 4runner and I'm little gun shy. Does anyone have any suggestions on protecting all of your ad ons - replacement value?
