[Kongorealm]

^ you are right, we are worst! Criminal elements have stolen door strips, music, headlights, , batteries, breaking a car to thief items such as laptops, phones, etc. I have even heard of a guy who lost his intercooler, battery and turbo (imagine that eh, he came back to his car and tried to start, when he checked those items gone wee...cool story!)

[jmccomie]

[Country_Bookie]

So replacing a tailgate costs more than US $500?

Last year if I remember correctly:

Stole my SGL almera door strips August along with another a the airport

Couple matrix owners los their door strips as well

Stole a 22" rim I believe it was off a Mazda BT50 again at the airport, then next day took ALL the rest; van was on blocks...

Cut the cables off a brand new pickup and stole battery

Stole a bumper off a B11 at the airport (seeing a trend here?)

Multiple reports of almera side view mirrors and wheel covers missing at the airport.

This year so far bandits stole the wheel covers off someone's Tiida and Almera the night there was the strong weather was passing over Tobago. That right now is one of the main things they are stealing here.

Also, Airport, Shade Nightclub mainly and pretty much anywhere at night once the place is dark enough and the vehicles there long enough that they could mark it, they gonna steal parts off it. The island just steadily going to sheit.

Hmmm and was coming for a little vacation in Tobago later this year with the car, but looks like i'd leave it home. Thanks for the heads up MISHI

wayezz what the hell going on in 'bago

tobago not easy wit she self..

This is VERY common especially on F150/F250/F350 trucks. Those tailgates can be removed in a few seconds and sell for $200-$800USD all day long. The crazy part is, they all come with a lock from the factory, just nobody locks them!

It's actually a bit uncommon to see trucks like that in the picture with a stolen tailgate, that's an 04'-08' F150 and those tailgates are unique to those trucks. The previous generation F150 (1997-2003) tailgates interchanged with F250/F350 until 2008, and are stolen far more often.

The 2008+ tailgates are starting to become targets of theft, they're more stylish than previous models and swap without modification. They also have the "sissy step" and reverse camera built in.

[Upcfordcruiser]

Don't know if this happens in T&T a lot, but its not unheard of to have tailgates and wheels stolen right from the dealership

I've had wipers stolen from my evo before. Way back in 2002.
I figured someone was putting together a CKD car and didn't have the wipers so they stole mine.
