Good morning Chris,

Great to see you on here. I did get the towing issue email and I’ve been working with Christine and I asked her a question a week ago that she has been unable to answer. My original configuration included the roof rack and side steps as dealer installed accessories however I would prefer to wait and see what the aftermarket has to offer as nether of these are ideal for me. Is it a problem to cancel these two items on my contract or will Red Noland insist that the original configuration stay the same even though these are dealer installed accessorie?
@Regalz we can work with you on that, no problem!
 
Would you mind answering this Chris?
@Regalz, sorry for the delayed reply, but yes we can take care of that. Always feel free to call me, between this forum, multiple Facebook Groups, email, texts, etc... the notifications get a bit overwhelming sometimes.... a phone call is never a bother though!
 
That one would be mine! Crazy the extremes that the green goes from under bright or dark lighting conditions. Have to say i think the white steelies is killer! Definitely gives old school vibes if that’s what you are going for versus the modern GWAgon look.

I picked mine up on 12/23 from Red Noland and the finance guy (can’t remember his name unfortunately) showed me some pics of yours. I drove mine up to Denver and then drove my f150 up to Loveland. On the way back from Loveland at around 6pm I saw you heading south on I25. First Gren I’ve seen on the road and it was the same day I picked mine up. Love the wheels with the roof, well done!

Oh nice congrats! The blue with the white roof looks awesome as well! Yeah I’m definitely pleased with how the white steelies look.. definitely gives the retro vibe I was looking for. Haven’t seen any other grens on the Colorado roads yet but have had friends send me picks of a solid eldoret blue.

Saw my second one today at DIA, solid green. Unfortunately I was busy talking to police as my F150 was missing from its parking space. Turns out there is some sort of “Mexican cartel” truck theft ring targeting f150’s at DIA. They got 10 yesterday and have done as many as 21 in a day. Fortunately mine was spotted by the police after it had been broken into but before they could return with a reprogrammed fob that would let them drive it away and they impounded It with relatively minor damage.

Interesting, just read a couple articles on this after hearing your story. Looks like F150 are easy to steal once you have the tools. It also sound like in October they caught 13 individuals, and most trucks were used to steal ATM machines. Plus most were recovered in CO, Texas and New Mexico. Only one in Juarez Mexico. I wonder how it's been linked to Mexican cartel. Maybe because the felons were Mexican? The whole cartel thing is crazy. It's like the modern day mob but they don't have scorcasie making feel good movies about them.

The officer who drove me to my truck claimed that particularly for Raptors they get orders from Mexico and are paid $7500 per truck, otherwise I’m not exactly clear on the “cartel” language he used. He did mention the arrest of the 13 and said that the theft’s immediately stopped, but then they all bonded out and it started back up again 🤷🏼‍♂️

That is crazy.
 
@Chris Maynard I saw on a FB post that Red Noland is selling premade Deutsch connection pigtails for the roof power points. Is this something you guys are offering for sale to public? (i.e. outside your own Grenadier customer base)

I cant think of a Scorcese mob movie that I would describe as "Feel Good."

When I visited this weekend, they mentioned this. Electrical systems are not my forte, so I didn’t quite understand the significance but I can confirm the existence.
