I've got a 77 Ford F150 with 125K, a 92 GMC Safari with 140K, a 99 Mercury Mistique with 140K, and a John Deere 850 with 4000 hours.

None are worth my life or the carjacker's (or tractor jackers

), . . . and especially in Ohio where one cannot use deadly force over property. Once the dude has turned his back, he is leaving the scene, . . . no longer a threat, . . . and just maybe the cops will get my ride back, . . . no biggie if they don't, . . .

I really would hate to lose my truck, . . . I brought my 28 year old son home from the hospital when he was 3 days old in that truck, . . . but it still is not worth another person's life.

May God bless,
Dwight
