Stolen 07/18/2016 from Atlanta, Georgia
The thief busted one of the door handles to gain entry and likely damaged the ignition.

This is the second truck stolen from my family's home in four days.

Beautiful Dodge, If someone is driving your 95 it should stick out like a sore thumb. I'm in the Mobile Alabama area. If it comes my way, and I hope it doesn't, rather see this rotten thief caught, I'll be sure to let you know. I'll send this to my friend across the bay to keep an eye open for it.

sucks it was taken man, if i see it ill make sure the thief cant do it again.

 

When i get moved im gonna be doing a deadman switch to keep this from happening.

 

I do hope you get it recovered with minor damage bro.

With what these older trucks are bringing these days, especially clean low mileage ones, it is not surprising. I do hope you get it back and the dirty SOB's that took it get theirs. Drove NC to MO yesterday and did not see it on the interstate any where. Headed back later today and will keep an eye out.

I hate a thief!!! I'm on the interstate from Nashville,TN to 55 miles west of Nashville everyday. I'll keep my eyes open for it. I always notice clean 12 valves like yours. Good luck!

If it had been stolen here, 50 minuets later it would be in Tijuana driven by some "bato".

Son's of a motherless goat!  I hate thieves!!!

Do you guys keep full coverage on your trucks like me?

 

And if stolen how to convince the insurance company what they are worth?

 

Alex do you have full coverage ins?

Yeah I still have full coverage on my 99, it has 130,000 in the engine and so Iit still books close to $10,000, but at some point I should just put the diference between liability and full coverage in the bank.  I just want something back if it gets stolen or totaled.  

A truck dealer in Portland, calling his company something to the tune of' Investment vehicles', something like that, has a few second gens selling for over 20,000 bucks. If I remember, I think one was $25 k, a dually with everything on it. I think most are manuals and have under 100,000 miles.

I still carry full coverage on mine for the same reason the same reasons a deej and am thinking you do. I have not however looked to see what mine is worth with 380k on it.  

I carry full coverage on both the 2002 Dodge and my 2000 Jayco. There is other reasons behind the full coverage. 

 With only 89k on the clock, my driveway queen has full coverage also.

I really should put full coverage on it, then park slight more into the street each day lolol.  

 

 

nah nothing but the bare mins on my trucks.  It might bite me someday, but up until this point I have never used insurance, that's a lot of months of $100 saved.

It's only an extra 25 a month for me for full coverage on top of the required liability and that's with a 1000 deductible. 

but at least if something does happen I will get something out of it.

Went from ~$250 for 3 vehicles to $125 or something like that.  

 

No idea why.  I really don't like dealing with insurance so I tend to get frustated and just give up lol

It has been almost a year since the trucks were stolen. Unfortunately, my Dodge has not been recovered. However, the experience allowed me to see true character of the Dodge diesel community. The support I received both when I was repairing the truck and after the theft was incredible. I greatly appreciate your help. Thank you.

Sorry your truck was not recovered... 

I am sorry also for your loss. I want you to know that I just bought a 2001 Laramie SLT, everything on it. Very very clean and tight, long bed, extended cab, 190 k miles for $16,500. I know it's too much but, That's just what you have to pay if you want something good.

 

I hope your insurance takes good care of you like they should.
