[QUOTE="GLT, post: 2005537, member: 21248"] It was extremely disheartening, to say the least. There are several threads here on FRF where others have experienced the same thing. I had no idea how easy they are to steal until I researched, after the fact. They stick a long pair of pliers in behind the grill and cut the horn so that the alarm doesn't sound when they break in / open the door (by the way, there are aftermarket solutions that address this issue as well), then they program a key fob and are on their way. In many cases, they gain door access by hanging around nearby with a scanning device that steals the unlock code when the owner pushes the unlock button on the remote. IIRC you are in the San Antonio area? Mine occurred in Houston, and these two cities are the hotbed for stolen Raptors. In many cases, they take them to a warehouse, put them in a shipping container, and truck them across the border. [/QUOTE]
