I can't even imagine the emotional roller coaster you must have been on ! Speaking of movies I just saw the "Frozen River " the other night about smuggling people through the Res through Canada and into the USA and then I read this .

Sorry for all your grief but way to think on your feet and get the reward out and ultimately the car back .

Pete, that is fantastic news. Glad to hear your car is back in your hands. It sounds like you had to do whatever it took to get the car back, which is exactly what most of us, especially me, would have done. I would have taken out a loan out to get it back. They make trucks and trailers everyday.

Saturday things were lined up for a Sunday morning deal.
Sunday got up a 6am and drove the 2 hours back. We got a hotel room 20 minutes away from where it was going to happen. The next 48 hours you could have made a movie. Came home Sunday night with no car and negotiations started all over again on Monday. Finally @ 6pm the exchange was made off the rez in a church parking lot. ... Indians told me the car was "scary fast" and that it was the fastest car they ever drove.
You gotta do what you gotta do. There is going to be some changes around here!

Thanks again for all your support.
Peter

Does this mean that if you go on the reservation, get your car, shoot them and then return to non-reservation soil, that reservation police can't do anything to you? And since the shooting didn't occur in their jurisdiction, the local police can't do anything either. That seems to be the way it should work, doesn't it?

In any event, I'm glad you got your car back. I just have a problem with people who feel they have the right to take or destroy something that is not theirs.... Although I guess this is an interesting theory when the issue involved Native Americans....

Indians or not, they deserve to die.

I'm just glad the car wasn't destroyed, there is no replacing something like that.

I have been following this story and started to give up hope. The return of this COPO is great news.

I dont recommend starting a thread about anti theft devices, keep them to yourself. Think of it as Operational Security. Stay one step ahead of the bad guys.
