My dads truck was found by the Police in the West end of Edmonton. I received a phone call from the police last night when I was at work. They towed it to a lot not too too far from where I live. Not sure of damage to the vehicle and other charges yet (towing? storage?).
Am happy it was found about 10 days after it was stolen, now worried what it will cost to get it back in front of the house again. Need it rather desperately so will have to work something out. Will use it to drive mom around, for moving things and for pulling the wet plate trailer next spring/summer/fall.
Update* Saw the truck for the first time today at the garage where it will be repaired. Got some more bad news, the canopy was missing, dads beautiful canopy was stolen or taken off vey the thieves. The spare tire is still in the back but everything else is gone. If I want to buy a new used canopy it will cost between $100 and $1000 CAD. The truck door handle is also missing and the ignition is destroyed as well (probably so they could break in and then start the vehicle).
