But river flows dark and fast. Dog stop and see Spot go. Girlfriend cheating with friend. I see them smash, I feel sad but I get turn on. After he blast her, we sit down and go piknik.

Can you explain to me how an "inside joke" is a constructive post?

Glad you got it solved OP but like Mr. T said himself there is a certain level of trust for information that could potentially help someone steal an X5, and without referrals from other forums etc I can understand how some members might not be excited to post that on a public forum (who knows who could be reading that, gosh you can go on youtube nowadays and learn how to make a homemade bomb!)

Thanks for coming through UCrew, thats why you are the founder extraordinaire!
OK , I need a trench to lay a cable in and some bombs would be quicker than digging so pm me the videos .

I acknowledge most thieves aren't that smart but I don't see them coming to the forum for help.
some of you guys know that i am with the DSS (same agency that agent Hobbs, (The Rock) from Fast and Furious is working at), and i am on the technical side of the house...

in our line of business, there are no locks or secrets - with enough money and manpower any place can be breached... We treat the security as a layered approach:

if my job to secure a hen, i will build a shed to prevent it from wandering off...

but a shed will not prevent the hen from being eaten by a fox, so i will put on a door...

the door will not stop a mischievious kid, so i will put a simple lock...

which will not stop a neighbor who wants to steal the hen... so i will put a better lock...

which will not stop the thief who wants to steal hen for profit, so i will beef up the shed, put a better door and a combination lock...

which will not stop a mean cuban agent who want to blackmail me with kidnapped hen, so i will install security systems, with cameras and alarms...

which will not stop a mean chinese agent, who wants get the secrets to the round shaped eggs, so i will install a better alarm, more cameras and have guards walking around the henhouse/shed...

which will not stop a mean russian agent who wants to prove that he can steal the hen regardless of my attempts to protect it, so i move the henhouse into an undisclosed location....

my point is, nothing can stop a determined thief from stealing an X... but we are preventing the casual joyrider, and a bit more determined thief from taking the car... that is all...

i think in my 3000 posts i have a few that are not constructive at all... i sure hope that most of posts on this forum are more constructive than my picnic... the key just floated... girlfriend makes river to bumper of his car...

lol... redliner, relax, we are having fun... this is not first time someone comes to the forum, with 5 posts total and is asking us for help to get into his car that either his kids or his girlfriend has locked up... the stories are the same, the posters are nowhere to be found after the initial appearance... look at the membership roll - over 70 thousand users registered, and only couple hundred people actively talking on this forum...

you don't expect us to believe every story we hear... the moderators may have means of proxy verifying the person, while average forum user does not have such a luxury...

wait, i have to reply to General Admiral Mahmoud Suleiman from Nigeria - i just won a coca cola international sweepstake in Great britain for 40.5 million british pounds, i just need to send in $300 to cover the paperwork expenses...

Thank you all for coming around to understand my side. New car and locked out. I am a member of another forum for my 325. Found this one when I started searching.

I understand why you were not willing to give up this info. Some of the posts were pretty moronic though.

Can anyone tell me what the hell TwinTurboGTR is talking about in post #21

From memory, a regular Chinese spammer who tries to sell useless ebay key blanks and/or key programmers here regularly. His/her posts always include references to having a picnic, floating on rivers, and so on. But buying his fake keys always saves the day, as I understand it.

Here is a sample: http://www.xoutpost.com/off-topic/lo...s-picnics.html

Why pay someone to do what I can do for free? Most insurance companies offer what AAA offers anyway. People just dont know about it.

I think it's an add-on for most insurance companies. For example, for State Farm it's called Emergency Road Service:

Types of Auto Insurance Coverage - State Farm

Emergency Road Service – State Farm®

Also, AAA has other benefits, example for Texas:

AAA - Benefit Comparison
