Well normally I stay out of other people's business.
I have a neighbor that lives 3 houses down the street. He is in construction and drives a newer Ford F350 Power Stroke for his business. We have talked on a few occasions, but are not what I could call friends. Anyway I see a big lifted black Cummins Dodge parked in front of his house for a while, then all of the sudden I see him pull in my driveway. He gets out and says "Nice Mopars you have over here" He looks at the dart, barracudas and Dart Sport for a while and we shoot the breeze. He then asks me how much I know about my neighbor that drives the white ford and when was the last time that I saw the truck? At this point I figured out he was a repo man. I told him that I haven't seen the truck in a few days, but was familiar with it. He gave me a card and said that there is a $500 finders fee out on the truck and call him if I saw it. I thought yeah, whatever.
Well 10 minutes after he left my neighbor pulls in his driveway in the truck. I had a moral dilemma. So I called the repo man and told him. He said that he would be back in a few minutes. In the mean time my neighbors friend hops in the truck and takes off. I call the repo man and tell him what direction that he is going. He says that he is sitting around the corner waiting.
Anyway about an hour later he calls and said that he got the ford. He followed the guy to his house and the driver actually left the keys in the ignition. He said it was too easy. He backs up and hooks up to it with a lift on the back of his dodge and knocks on the door and tells the guy to come get his stuff out of it.
He gets my info for the reward and the company will be cutting me a check this week. He also thanked me a few times, because sometimes these repos can drag out for weeks when the person is hiding a vehicle like my neighbor was doing.
I told my wife to use the money for new shoes for her and all of our kids and work boots for me. What do you think???????
