So here’s the pics.
Twisted lock cylinder:

I guess they were trying to turn the alarm off:

Alarm went off at 7:44 am but I was busy working and didn’t see the alert.

Hopefully this doesn’t happen to anybody. I garage my truck all of the time at home. Looking to some countermeasures...

Lock our trucks? Seems like we should leave them unlocked. Not any harder to get into, but less damage. I wish I was kidding. Bummer about your truck.
I used to live in some rough parts of Boston back in day, multiple radios & contents stolen like I’m talking @ least a dozen times between 3-4 different vehicles lol one time looked down from 3rd story window in a brownstone saw guys trying to break my drivers window in my GTO w/ a brick (literally the pounding sound woke me up it was directly below my window) - I didn’t bother going down I shot the 2 guys multiple times w/ a semi-auto pellet gun bahahah- was able to mostly polish out the scuffs on the window

After that I just left my doors open all around & just left nothing of value in my vehicles, that worked for a while, moved on from GTO to a G8 GT & saw it rummaged through a couple times……but criminals are mostly morons, and sure enough one lazy idiot didn’t even bother trying the doors & smashed my drivers window anyhow despite being unlocked only to come away w/ a handful of change & a Dunkin’ Donuts gift card w/ maybe $7.25 on it lol

People are a-holes

Dang it, sorry that happened to you, you'll be pissed off for awhile now. What about putting a club on it for the next while, and crank the tires to the left or right. I've been lucky with my Raptor so far, have had work vans stolen and my stang taken about 20 years ago, thought it was gone for good, but the cops came to my place at 1am and said they have it. Needed a lot of mechanical work that insurance paid for and the idiot left the screwdriver in the car he used to break the ignition cylinder. (I kept the screwdriver all these years as a reminder and everytime I use it I picture that lowlife getting bent over in jail).

Thanks for all the tips ya I’m pretty pissed but not surprised.
A club would be a good idea. Cops don’t care gotta fill a online report out. Insurance is saying vandalism. Gotta bring to the dealer to see if anything else is wrecked.
