    Tools needed:


    .22 rifle (for disabling cameras)

    Milwaukee Sawzall (for cutting fence)

    Keys. You still have the keys, right?


    Mission very accomplished. If needed, blame Ford.

    Okay, are we sure it's Ford's GPS tracking that's flaky or could it be one, or both of the following, A) Hipster McDouchington gave them the wrong number, B) Scott Monty is a f*cking idiot.


    I'd put my money on human error for the bad tracking.

    I had my legally parked car towed in Brooklyn. Took a year to get my $320 back. When I finally got the refund check I wanted to get it framed. Like the mighty bigfoot, it is rumored to exist but no one has actually seen a New York Parking Bureau refund check!

    Surprised this is NYC and not PPA Hell in Philadelphia ala Parking Wars.


    I love living on the same block as Philadephia Republican HQ because the leaders of the PPA don't patrol their own neighborhood.

    Not quite analagous, but it reminds me of my friend's brother who had several vehicles "stolen" over the course of a year. Of course, it turned out that he was "purchasing" them with rubber checks, and they were getting repossessed pretty much monthly.


    So, he'd find the next nearest dealer that wouldn't do a credit check, and the cycle would start anew.

    @Ash78: Sex is not that important; it's the afterward part when you're naked and it's warm. Watching the sun come up through the windshield you look in her good eye and you help strap on her leg and you know: you fucked a pirate.
