Yes, that is excellent advice. My daughter had three dashboard radios stolen from her car parked beside and in front of her San Diego home because the thief knew that a new one was coming. She finally quit replacing it (until she moved).

This has been my concern since it happened. I think I will have to sleep under my ride until I install an alarm... Any thoughts on tilt sensors? One guy told me it was a $100 add on. Another told me beware, older tilt sensors were mercury based and effective. Today's tilt sensors are not effective because they can't use mercury any more. He said shock sensor the bed and the cab since they are separate.

Yes, I got everything returned to stock. In hindsight I probably should have gotten different tires, but emotion didn't allow me to put a hold on the process to shop...
