Was heading out the door a few weeks later to pick up insurance check and it was the MCSO saying they found my truck. Truck had been stolen by a couple of low lifes who had found some other kids camping (brother and sister), raped and nearly killed the girl and killed the boy....

When I got the truck back, driver door lock had been drilled out and the ignition messed up. But they left the then-girlfriends purse and my school stuff, and even replaced the missing AC control and fan control knobs.....
