thankfully, there is no way to start the rig, they must have been looking for a secret switch.

thankfully, they left my fullsized spare, highlift, d-ring straps etc. etc...

I'd left the garage door opener on the visor... thankfully they did not want in the house as I would probably be in jail for and there'd be folks in the yard with holes in them.

Phoenix area folks should beware of Jeep thieves on the move.

This is just my thoughts on the topic of theft....to all that post pics on the internet of their rigs.....block out your plate number prior to posting them. It is not hard at all to get the registration info on the vehicle by the plate number. If you think about it in a thief's point of view, what better place to go car shopping then forums for automobiles?
It is sad to say it but in these days we need to be careful of what info we put on the internet. So, just something to think about, use Microsoft Paint or Photo Shop and color over your plate number. If not, you might as well post your home address.
BTW.....I am happy for you that you did not loose your rig!!!

Do you hear banjos?
WOW, I'm glad they were crappy criminals!! It has to be a big boost to their self esteem to know that they suck at being thieves, a lousy part of society, since they've obviously failed at being productive members of society! I bet they wear rectal headdresses!!

Theres nothing i hate worse then a thief, glad to hear though they didnt get nothing or make off with your Jeep. Thiefs and people who dont have to work hard for what they have dont care or have compassion for others things. Ive always said, a man walks into my yard to steal something, itll be the last time he walks into someones yard cause i will shoot both knee caps out from under him.

I remember when I first joined here, there were a billion people talking about switches to power your starter, and alternator, and fuel pump, and battery and all this stuff so people can't start it. And I said to myself, "Who's gonna steal an XJ?"
