Default Truck stolen, $500 reward

I don't post much on LS1tech, mostly on Performance Trucks but I thought I would pass this on. The truck has a forged LQ4 with a front mount turbo kit, just in case anyone hears of similar parts being sold in the area....

Well, this has been one of the worst days ever. I got off of work this morning and met my folks up for breakfast at IHOP in the Woodlands at approx 6:30am. Upon turning onto my street I noticed my truck was not parked in front of the house (where I left it last night) or in the driveway. I hit the garage door opener only to see an empty garage...It's extremely disappointing to know that something you've invested so much time, money and detail into is gone.

My family is offering a $500 reward with the arrest and conviction and/or recovery.

Unfortunately the truck appears stock on the outside aside from a Corsa Touring catback, however here are some pictures of the truck:

I have already contacted local authorities, now I'm just waiting to hear if anything pops up......


Sigh...

edit: There is also a cross/oval emblem on the bottom right hand corner of the tailgate
Thanks,
KB

Dang, what a sleeper! Bet the thief probably soiled your driver's seat the first time he floored it.

Hope you find it, sucks to hear about stolen vehicles. I've had two attempted in the last 2 yrs, this stopped them: www.Ravelco.com

Very sorry to hear that. I really like your truck. It adheres to my approach to modding my cars: stock-ish but extremely clean exterior, with a hidden can of whoop-*** under the hood.

I really hope you get it back and I think we should take a sawsall to those thieves and cut off their hands. The Middle-eastern cultures do that one thing right.

what color is it? I just got back into college station from my hometown in columbus. There was a chevrolet or gmc pickup that was full of illegal immigrants that got pulled over on I-10 in Columbus. I am a firefighter so I hear a lot of the police traffic on my fire radio. Apparently the truck had one LP on the front and a different one on the back. When the trooper pulled the truck over about 6 or 7 people took off running. The driver was caught instantly and the truck's VIN # came back as stolen from the houston area. Just wondering if it was the same truck. If so then it is in Columbus.

the truck that was pulled over on I-10 in Columbus and found to be stolen was apparently pewter or silver.

i'm pretty sure it probably did have the texas truck scene decal when it was stolen. question is, did the thieves remove it to keep it from being identified easily

it looks just like any other truck . . . this is about the only thing that separates it from any others . . . the Corsa, and a few stickers.
