Falcon hire's a thief.....

Sorry to hear about that bro,that sucks!
It seems there is always one or two in any company that will steal anything they can get their hands on!

 

This happens everywhere, I have always been told if you are leaving a truck in the yard, any yard, even if locked, take your stuff out of it. Lots of people have a key to fleet trucks within a company. Sorry to hear this happened.

 

had a tv stolen outta my truck on the yard once , theif left the remote though so I took it and hung it on the bulletin board in the drivers lounge with a note attached stating whomever stole the tv outta trk#___ here's your remote too, I don't need it since you stole my tv.

 

Heck, there are only about 4 or 5 different keys for each make of trucks out there. My hubby had stuff stolen out of his truck while it was sitting locked at a truck stop. It doesn't even have to be someone that has 'access' to the keys for the company trucks.

 

We have a list of about 20 different keys for our trucks that they keep in the shop. However, you don't even need the right key or a master to get in. I locked myself out of my truck earlier this week, my spare in my wallet wasn't there, and the key hidden on the frame was missing. A KLLM driver in a Cascadia parked next to me, and let me borrow his key. His key wasn't even close to being cut like my key, but with a little persistent jiggling up and down of the key in my passenger door I was able to turn it and get into my truck.

 

Yup that can happen......like a fool I liked myself out of my truck when fueling once.....an old hand pulled up next to me and offered to let me use his key.....not even the same model Cornbinder...and definitely not the same year.....worked like a charm

 

Goes DOUBLE for Petes--don't think they have more than 5-6 keys for everything from mid 80's till about late 04 when they changed the style--Didn't have my present(early 04) for a day--and i have a drawer full of old keys in the shop--so checked just for fun--grabbed a key from an 83 359--sho nuff--vroom vroom
Course I've known that for ever--so it won't work on mine--haven't owned a truck in over 30 years that didn't leave the dealer and go to my local locksmith(actually old Mom-Pop--truvalue)where all the tumbles and locks--including ignition were changed--and I've got keys stashed in places I even forgot they were stashe--just in case LMAO
