I dnot know if you have ever done this but now is the time. Pray over your car that God protects it form those trying to hurt it and steal from you. It has worked for me and God has kept me safe in my ride aswell.

it wasnt the law that found it, saw it myself when i tried to find a parkingspot for my moms honda i had borrowed.. it seems like they tried to do a 3 point turn and since the shifter cable (thank god for crappy parts sometimes) had broken a few days back, i had bought another a new one but not installed it yet (i just turn the collar on the steering coloum to reverse and put in park till i found the time to take a good day in the shop and do some small snags, including the cable)

anyway.. they couldnt get it in reverse, so it just bumped softly into a tree and stayed there in idle. and propably stalled... and when they couldnt drive in it, they just left it.. thank god i parked it in that direction

That also happens here with the police not looking. Some thiefs stole a wrecker from our business with the company name on the side in VERY LARGE lettering. The vehicle was abandoned on the side of a very busy highway about ten miles from were it was stolen when it ran out of gas. This was also about 2 miles from a police station. It was found by my next door neighbor a week after it was stolen as he was driving by he then called me. I went to where it was and put gas in it started it up and then directly drove it to the police station to ask why it was not noticed and to report it found. They said sorry we didn't see it. A1 ton wrecker painted red with emergency lights on top lettering on the door about a foot tall in size but they didn't see it. You had to drive by it to get to the police station from that side of town. For a week it sat there!!!!!!!!!!

I did however add GPS tracking to my ride to help in the event it is stolen. If the alarm is triggered it not only alerts my remote, it calls me and sends me an e-mail as well. Plus you can check it's location and status anytime from anywhere.

I know that's of little help in your situation, but it may help others in their quest for security.

I hope you get it back in the shape it was taken.


too bad the GPS things couldnt disable the car with a 'click' or something once you find it missing.

Dude- hope you get the car back. and in one piece (or close to it)
