Man, I'm sorry about the truck! I purchased an alarm system for my 4Runner right after I bought it. I know that it won't stop a determined thief with a flatbed tow truck and a winch from stealing my vehicle, but it will stop the opportunist. Even if they break in and jump start the car without somehow setting off the alarm, as soon as they step on the break pedal or the gas without the key in the ignition, the system will kill the motor.

But even with the alarm system, I don't leave anything in the car at night that I can't live without, or don't want someone to steal. When traveling by car, the guns come inside with me.

I hope the police find your truck and get it back. This happened to my youngest brother a long time ago. Thieves stole his truck and tools from the parking lot of a local Pasadena hardware store while he was in the store. The did find his truck eventually, a couple of months later, abandoned in front of a vacant lot in Los Angeles. By then, the insurance company had already paid him for the loss.
