Theft
Ive been reading alot about badge's being stolen, heard from a parts guy that delt with someone that had their blower and intake stolen. Woke up this morning to finish working on my truck and my upper grill was pushed back into the shell and the lower cracked...looked like someone try taking them. Do our grills fit a reg. f150 / expedition? Just curious to see what vehicle's to watch for cruising around my area

im pretty sure they do fit them because i have seen some supercrews that some people converted into Lightning fronts by adding the grills and lower bumper.
luckily my L stays in my garage when im not driving it. as far as the badges go, im sure they can be taken off like most other badges on cars.

On another note....I had a dream last night that I came outside and saw some dude kicking the ***** out of my truck....and it was covered.

No ones backed into me that I know of, the trucks been parked at my parents for 3 weeks before it goes into the body shop (getting scratches and body damage from a storm repaired). My pop's told me that a few high school kids stopped by about a week ago asking about my truck and they where driving a lifted f150.

Yeah, I know...this thread has been dead for a bit...but...I have an addition..
I'm considering buying a train horn, attaching it to the alarm system, and hiding it in the bed.
Can you imagine that thing going off right beside the bedroom of the guy who lives below me at 12:00? Not to mention the rest of the apartment building? Or for that matter...the guy trying to steal the truck?

Never did reply, but I did find out who did it. A few kids around the corner tried swipping the upper/lower grille at 4 am, and a neighbor caught them in the act. The guy knew the kids and their parents so they are being delt with...Awsome thing was the younger teen got his a@@ lifted off the ground and belted in front of me...which made me feel some what better. I get my new Grill and sorround next week and a replacement lower.

When I was at BW3's one night I walked out to see some kid trying his best to hunker down and pry the passenger side badge off of my lightning. I didn't know what to think. He was prolly 13/14, so I knew couldn't hurt him. I just ran up got a hold on him and started to smack him around like I was his old man. I have never heard anyone squeal and cry as much as he did. I only did it for maybe 20 secs, but you would have thought I was killing him. Eventually I let him go and he ran crying back towards some appartments where I suppose he lived. If that wasn't a life lesson for him then I don't know what was. I know I let him off easy, but I was just in shock, and couldn't think straight. Normally I am extremely hot headed so I thank God that I didn't snap and really hurt him. Crazy this came up by the way, because I was just thinking about this yesterday and then I saw this thread.
