Maybe i have become sensitive to false stories because of the internet, but this one just doesn't seem to work for me. The timeline of things happened rather quickly.

After i payed off my truck and car i had nightmares about this crap happening to me.

This guy was awesome in how he handled the situation and those asshats at the repo office deserved to be arrested.

Please, i wouldnt sign shi* either for somebody stealing my car.

Exactly the point I tried to get across in my post above. I figured to be horribly flamed if I came right out and called the guy a liar.

I not saying it didnt happen, there may be some nuggets of truth in the story, but frankly for all of that stuff to transpire in the amount of time indicated by the time stamps on the posts seems ridiculous.

I wouldn't put it past him. He's a new member on that board maybe just trying to "make a name for himself" on there so to speak. I mean I still don't get how the bank employee could make the mistake of sending the repo guys info on a car that had no loans on it.

The author who got his car stolen spells at the grade 6 level. How in the heck does he have the intelligence needed to operate a motor vehicle?

wow.

if some repo guy took off with my truck on a flat bed I probably would've gone off the deep end. props to that guy for not doing anything irrational.

I was keeping quiet as well until someone else had the same opinion. I just lack the tact needed to bring it up :p
