Default Break In Period

Not what I expected but 4 weeks old and I think I completed my "break in" period. 3:04am, gated hotel parking lot. 2 other trucks broken into as well. Nothing of value in mine is ever left over night. They hit 2 other resort hotels. Looks like a crew hitting trucks, taking a minute and a half and looking for firearms.

Just a little reminder not to leave anything of value in your trucks!

The news report actually captured one (or more) of the perps who admitted they were looking for fire arms?

Wow, that sucks Brother.

The hotel may have video of the smash and grab. At the very least, it will help anyone affected with their insurance claims or lawsuits.

It's a common thing. Truck guys tend to carry pistols in the console. Not so much on a Lincoln.

I didn't think of it like that but, I'll bet if you broke into 100 cars and 100 pickups you'd have more guns out of the trucks at least 2-1. I don't have mine yet but when I do one of the first things I'm doing is getting a gun safe built into center console. I have vary rarely left my gun in the truck. Probably the only times is when I have to go somewhere you can't carry i.e. Airport, Court House, Etc.. there are someplaces that are HR 218 exempt.
