Default Stolen Car Guys... please read... Maybe this will help..

I know a few people here in Atlanta that arent in the best of legal job titles.. Well I asked them how these guys are getting these cars.. I was told a guy in Mississippi makes programmed bypass (GM=VATS) units for any make as long as it has a obd2 plug.. The one this guy makes for the GM will work on any truck or f body 99 and up... If you have a 98 they actually have to have a programmed key made for the car.. From my understanding it works almost like a tuner.. Plug it in.. Turn the key to the on position.. Cut it off.. Then crank.. Takes a matter of seconds.. And the car drives just like it would if you had a key to the actually car.. Hope this helps..

This would make it easier, but if they really know some ****, VATS is just looking for a ground in the end, so if they know which wire to ground and they know how to defeat the GM lock cyl. they are gone in seconds. But some of these cars taken were not driven away, we know this because they did not run. Shoot 1st, it won't stop until we kill a few of them w/ no charges filed. I am MORE than willing to take out the 1st one myself Forget Big Bubba in prison, worry about where I am gonna put the barrel, you'll beg for bubba b4 I finish.

thanks for the info NITROUSS, that sounds like maybe how they got mine, cuz it cranked right up and they didn't waste any time. Do you think my car might have ended up in ATL or N.O.? The reason I ask is because there isn't a big stolen car scene here in Montgomery certainly not LS1 cars, so where did my car end up, i wonder? Maybe they just chopped it up, but my car was nearly perfect, so it seems like a waste to cut it up for parts, but who knows??

These guys out here dont mess with GM/ford stuff at all, they have no use for it.. I think you might want to look in between you and N.O.!
