It’s sad for a first post, but better late than never?
Silver Gen 2 Crew Cab, 2018. Taken from the Larry H Miller Ford Dealership in Lakewood, CO. Truck has been needing a new transfer case for the past two months. The parts finally came in, I dropped the truck off on Monday. This Friday evening, I was notified that it was ready for pickup. I couldn’t make it to the dealer before closing, so it was going to sit for the night. At 8:00pm, I received a notification from FordPass that a master reset had been performed. It was extremely odd, so I called the non-emergency number.
The cop told me a raptor was reported driving through a fence in that area this evening. After searching the lot, they were unable to find the truck and it’s been officially reported stolen. Fort all the folks in Colorado and surrounding States (especially if you’re in between Denver and Mexico) please report any sightings of the truck pictured below. I’d really appreciate it.
Truck has a stage 2 Cobb tune with the FMIC. Geiser 3” springs, and Deaver +3 HDs. Wyoming plates (assuming the thief is an idiot and kept the same plates).
I’ve done everything to prevent this (jimmy jammers on all doors, lock cylinder removed, I never leave the keys in the truck). That said, I’m my opinion, the dealership looks extremely suspect. The SAME DAY it’s repaired, it’s stolen?! Also, it shouldn’t have been possible to steal the truck without a key. How did the key grow legs and walk out of the locked building and hopefully a lock box? These are just my assumptions right now, since I can’t get ahold of anyone at the dealership to confirm anything just yet.
