    I don’t know this guys situation but this statement wouldn’t hold water for my truck. I have way more into my truck than what the insurance companies think it’s worth.
    And also, it looks to be a glider. If you have ever been on a year long waiting list to get one, and nowadays it’s hard to even order a 389 and have it built. So just having insurance money back instead of the truck is a real quick to the nads. However, I’m sure it’s a parts truck now somewhere

    Or its got a new paint job and is running up and down the big road with a new MC# on the door...

    New paint, a few cosmetic changes, someone that is good with VIN plates, and a similar but cheap truck from a junk yard.... And someone has a "resurrected" truck restoration.

    You'd think manufacturer's would have a simple device requiring a combination to start the truck.

    Or aftermarket. Just a relay activated with like a 6 digit code, nothing extravagant.

    2020 model year coming up geez.

    No they'll put in 4 or 5 wtf is this for gizmos though.

    I can gaurantee that if I owned my own truck I would install a hidden kill switch somewhere... Ive done this on several cars and pickups for either myself or friends and family.
