Glad they didn't get your truck or the detector. I always worry about my detector even going in a gas station to get a drink I always lock the car and park where I can see it while inside.

That's one of the reasons I left Tampa 25 years ago! I never thought I would leave my hometown, but I couldn't take being afraid all the time! I also had my car broken into....tape deck, tapes and ashtray full of change! They left a full hand print on the passenger's side window, and still the cops turned up nothing! Where was CSI then?

Glad you only had a minor theft. It could have been worse! Good luck in the future!
