Sorry to hear that, but glad there wasn't any damage and you actually were
able to get the whole truck back and not a stripped shell! I don't know how
easy they are to steal, but from the sounds of the contents the jerks left
behind, they probably have access to other parts of the criminal world and
maybe they were wanting to be professionals, but enjoyed their contents a
little to much and forgot where they left your truck!!;-) Luckily the police
found it before they did?!
