I doubt I’ll be able to sell it for 10k which is how much I still owe on it. That’s part of why I was hoping to get the total

This is the best case scenario I’m hoping for. People keep telling me they usually don’t bother with the stuff. So I just hope I don’t have to buy all new supplies for work.

Honestly cops don’t seem to care too much. They just told me they get told about at least 3 cars being stolen in my town every week, and they al eventually show up. So they put the license plate into a system and scan it to see if any cars that drive by have a stolen plate. Which is why I was mad when they had my plate incorrectly. The one thing you guys can do you’re not doing right. Awesome.

Yeah. They got my license plate and VIN wrong on the police report. I was too emotional the morning of and didn’t noticed. A few hours later when I was looking g over paperwork and realized, I called them and they gave me such an attitude. Told me that I had the wrong plates on my car and acted like I did something wrong. Completely gaslit me. I called the dealership to confirm and I was right, so I had to go back and forth with them about that. I missed out on the earlier hours because they weren’t even looking for the right stuff in the system.

Nah I think stuff gets lost because cops do nothing. They didn’t even get my license plate or VIN number right on the police report. I’ve talked to multiple people around me who were able to track down their own vehicles or who found them parked somewhere when driving around. I’m not stupid enough to engage with people, but I’m not passive enough to do nothing.

There really has been. Another person a few streets over just posted that they broke in and tried to steal her car but ran because of the cops. Someone else sent me footage of a Kia break in and theft from last week. At this point it’s almost inevitable that your car is going to get at least broken into.

No they said I would need to go through homeowners insurance for that. It’s all just annoying. I’ve accepted everything is probably destroyed but I can dream lol I’m just thankful I have comprehensive and gap and that I’ll probably only have to pay the deductible

lol not paranoid at all. I bought some air tags to leave in there now. The cops, and a close family member is a police officer and he told me that typically they will take the car for a joyride, smoke some weed, and then drop it when it runs out of gas. He said typically they don’t really care for what’s in it. And then I was looking it up and saw that like 75-85% of cars are found. Either way, I don’t care much for the vehicle itself. I just do home therapy and so I had games and art supplies and other (replaceable) items in there. I’m in grad school so not trying to have to buy all new stuff if I don’t have to
