Dang... things are wacked all over! Or... maybe it's just the Name Dave that send people over the edge? (JK) Sorry to hear that both of you have gone through such ordeals... Great White Dave, Ken Plantz up your way also got his new truck hiested right out of his driveway. They never did find that one... good thing his bird wasn't running and in the Garage... Glad they didn't go after anything else.
Mile High Dave, [censored]! Glad to hear your ok... I'll have to ask my buddy who lives near you what he was doing that night... (JK) Seriously... that is a situation where you just never know how it will work out... you did what it took to get yourself out of the situation, and that's what counts. Nothing to second guess.
Strange, but I was thinking of this same scenario just today as I drove my 61 Bug to work, and had to stop at a convenience store where there was a shooting just a few weeks back... I was keeping my eye on everyone there and watching to make sure no one was lurking... you can't lock the drivers door in these from the inside... and it's not the fastest getaway car... can't say as I would have known how to react if it did come up...
Just glad you guys are ok, and as mentioned, the vehicles can be replaced, you guys cant!
Let us know how it turns out with the insurance Great White Dave!
