Stolen truck, i had my F250 Lariat crew cab 7.3 D of 20 years taken right out of my driveway. I bought my 18 Raptor to make me feel better. One of the worst feelings; to get something taken without a fighting chance of eliminating the thief! Glad they didn't get yours, now you know they have been stocking your truck this was not random.

I had two motorcycles stolen when I was younger, a 360 Suzuki Enduro and 750 in line four cylinder Honda living in St. Louis city both off of Virginia Avenue. I had parked the Honda up off the street next to the bottom of the steps thinking they wouldn't steal it, nope.

They rolled it out the back gate which they broke.

I really really really hate thieves.

no Raptor engine can match the reliability of a 7.3 L diesel powerstroke . That thing is a tank and they fetch a lot.

Surprised they didn't take the truck in seconds. They seem to be stolen all the time in San Antonio. They just punch out the lock on the driver side and gain access. Did the same similar hack with the GEN1 and GEN2. About the best deterrent you can do is purchased a passenger side handle and put it on the driver side so there is no key hole to punch out. The two raptor shops in San Antonio, Alamo Truck Gear / Line-X do this install on raptor's all the time for customers.
