...unf0cking believable

From 1830 and 2115 someone stole my driver side wheel and left the car on bricks.

I have had my wing mirror taken off 3 times now and the car is still missing a near side wing mirror.

What do you mean "from 1830 and 2115"? Did they take a horse carriage wheel and some yet-to-be-discovered wheel that can spin at light speed without disintegrating?

Lol, sorry I had to do it. I know firsthand that getting your car jacked sux ass.

At least they put it up on bricks. When I had a wheel stolen, they just left it on the ground. Or maybe they didn't have time for bricks because they were too busy taking the complete soft top from my Tracker.

the military timing is because my bros laptop has no 'shift' key.

Maybe they thought since you're on American Gladiators that you can just push your car around. I kid. That sucks. Time to get some lug locks.

Locking lugs are pointless. All you have to do is fit a slightly larger socket onto it and they come right off.

Was it a particularly nice rim to steal? Many people like to steal shiny things just because they look expensive.

thats the sad thing, i don't even think it had an alloy wheel on the car1. it was just a steel wheel with a genetic hub cap on.
