    Those Texas edition 20's are serious business for thieves. Told my brother to install lock nuts as soon as he drove out of the lot with his new Sierra.

    Why doesnt the dealer put on lock nuts on all the wheels to deter theft?

    Think again. It would take much more time to remove lock nuts (maybe an extra 15 minutes per truck). Time is everything with these types of crimes.

    You can have a level of piece of mind with a solid set of Gorilla Lug Nuts for personal use.

    But as for the guys that pulled that off... Yeah, I agree with you.

    Not very serious if you ask me. A young kid could do that type of crime. A real heist would be taking all the trucks.

    Apparently they didn't finish the back lot because they got tired. But now they're rolling in the dough. It's been a pretty Goodyear for thieves.
