    The guy said it was over 1500 pounds of industrial suction. I think a cordless drill with a itty bitty drill bit to drill hole in the glass then release all that suction. Still going to have a hard time explaining what happened to the device because it has high tech satellite tracking and they have your plates/VIN etc, they will send a detective to your home to take you to police precinct headquarters interrogation two way mirror room to sweat you down.

    I think a cordless drill with a half inch bit through the plastic would work too.

    I foresee a lot of passengers earning the title of navigator.

    Perhaps we should carry an extra set of plates. Then when when we park, throw the fake plates on. Dump the "high tech boot" When they run our tags to send the law after us, it comes back as an 1986 Yugo.

    Good luck with that. Can't see the VIN on any of my vehicles...trim a piece of green scrubby and tuck it down in there. Nobody needs to be able to see it without my knowledge and consent.

    Truckers are the sole reason no one wants them parking in their lots.
    It amazes me that these slobs will drop trash out their window at a loves that has 40 trash cans around, and typically one right behind the slob that’s littering.

    6 PM parking at Walmart?
    sounds a lot like one of the more privileged members of society who thinks they can park wherever they pull the yellow knob.
    There's a brand new Loves not 5 miles from there. Also a Pilot in Byron and an indy across I75 from the Pilot. All together, there's probably 200 parking spots within 10 miles of where mr. Special decided to nap.
    No excuse. None
