STOLEN (CALGARY ALBERTA) - '01 4Runner SR5 - 4x4 - Lifted & Armoured
 

So... my junk was stolen from my garage - between the 17th and 21st. If you haven't checked already, make sure the emergency release on your garage door is disabled. Thieves pushed the top in, used a coat hanger to trip the release and slid the door up. Once inside, raided my watches and sunglasses, knives along with my roommates sunglasses and watch. Once they found the spare key, the 4Runner was game - same with my tent, sleeping bags and camping gear. Basically anything that could be tossed in easily. Hell, even an empty jerry can.

If you see someone driving my junk, wearing my watch and sunglasses - it's not me. Call the cops.

*minus dog and jerry cans.

You have to be kidding me. That is absolutely horrible. I thought it may have been some parts, but not your 4runner. Hopefully it will be recovered in one piece and soon.

I think it was stolen for the parts... We shall see.

Gotta love life. I thought I was on karma's good side. Guess I need to make a list.

Damn that is terrible! F'ing thieves!

Man so sorry to hear this, it's terrible how some people are these days. Looks like you spent a LOT of time and money on your runner and then someone just takes it.. I hope you can recover your rig back in one piece, the criminals will get what they deserve eventually. Things like this make me so angry! :smashputer:

This is one of my biggest fears. I hope you don't mind I shared this thred on my facebook. Get the word out you never know who might know somethig.
I hope this has a good ending for you.

This is awful.

sorry to hear about this mate. flippin' idiots man. thing is...your runner is one-off. they won't be able to get far with it. will likely part it out. scour craigslist and ebay daily for your parts. they will turn up maybe even on this forum or other toyota forums. thieves are stupid, you might be surprised. good luck with the recovery mate.

That sucks man, at least they didn't get your dog.

I'll be keeping an eye out in Vancouver for you!

I just posted it on Tacomaworld. I'll post it at FJ, TTORA and Yotatech as well.

dayum!sorry to hear:(

This is brutal David. Glad to see so much support from members on here and everywhere else keeping an eye open for it. I hope it's recovered.... If I see it down here in Lethbridge I'll follow it and beat the living **** out of the driver, even if its a lady.

I'd call the insurance company and have them send you a large check for your stolen rig and then start all over again, who knows maybe it happened for the best.

And yes, i feel for you, i just hope you werent too emotionally attached too it, thats almost if not worse than the monetary loss.

Yep, just got it to where I could use it reliably. The timed that just beautifully. Makes me wonder how long they've been waiting...

Giver - the more exposure the better.
My biggest fear was writing off my '06 Tacoma - this comes in a close second.

Damn rights - I hate thieves.

I don't think they can sell the parts anywhere close to me - the armour I have on it is pretty special in Calgary.

Indeed! The 'Black Beast' (aka a labrador who will lick your face off) was at my parents.

Thanks - greatly appreciated.

What goes around comes around - I hope these guys get testicular cancer.

I hope someone screws up and posts some of my **** for sale - that would be sweet, sweet justice. The more people that know the better.

Anyone know of a good arms dealer?

But... but... I JUST started over!

I drove this thing offroad ONCE! Went camping, ONCE!

Do I build an identical 3rd Gen? Ugh... frustration at it's finest...
