stolen trailer
I guess some assbag liked my ol' trailer better than I did.
If you see it being towed around, let me know. |

Sorry to hear that Stu.
If we see it here in Cali, we will call the local police. Navy-Jeepster

Start watching the landscapers in your area.....I bet dollars to dognuts that you end up seeing it with Sancho's Lawn and Garden stenciled on it.

I don't know much about trailer security but anyone ever tried one of these?
http://www.trailerlock.com/five.html Five important facts every trailer owner must know Trailer coupler locks, (hitch locks, tongue locks) are all very easy to defeat. Thieves attach the "locked" trailer coupler to their tow vehicle with chain or rope and pull the trailer out of sight or they use a special device that just clamps around the locked coupler and hooks directly to their tow vehicle. Law enforcement officials recommend wheel locks for trailer security. Trailer theft is a huge problem and it's rapidly getting worse. To thieves, a trailer means money on wheels -- an easy target asking to be stolen. Trailer insurance coverage alone is not enough protection. If you leave your trailer unsecured and it?s stolen, you?ve got to pay the deductible, deal with aggravation, down time and inconvenience plus likely increased premium rates and possible cancellation of your policy. I hope you find your trailer Stu, I'll keep an eye out for it out here along with that Green Jeep that was stolen. |

Thanks all again.
I saw a post from a local Jeeper who mentioned that his 16' trailer was stolen some time back. He had a cable laced through the wheels and frame along with a coupler lock device in place. Neither of them prevented the theft. Keeping it in the back yard with the dogs is probably the better solution. |
