Motherfuckin’ sonuvabitch!

And stupid motherfuckers, at that.

My Trooper got broken into last night … the “thieves” smashed the front passenger window, knocked my roof rack all out-of-whack, and tried to steal my stereo, breaking my dash in the process.

It’s a 1995 Isuzu Trooper S, 5 speed manual, 4WD with 132,000 miles. It’s in decent, but not great shape. Missing a little fender flare, cracked windshield, needs new wiper blades, [...]
