No, it involved a gay fraternity, a retarded crack-whore, several single dollar bills and a wild boar named "Mr. Happy"

And what do you care if people should learn how to break into Hummers: you don't even own one!

And the references to the gym? I-bitch, I've lost more muscle tissue on one of my bike rides then you'll ever have. I used you for entertainment traction, get over it. And try to be more interesting, your replies aren't even close to funny.

Wow, you are pure comedic genius!

The spin class at Women's Workout World does not really count as a bike ride.

Yeah I don't own a Hummer. I just to buy Hummer stuff from forum members just because I'm bored and not interesting at all.

Funny? was not even trying.

You might look into maybe a dietican if you are losing muscle tissue during work-out's. Unless that's some new bodybuilding regimine or something.

How about that, I still "got it"

What threw me off was your 5 replies in a row, smacks of pretencious kid. My bad, I suppose you're the real deal. Perhaps I'm a tad irritable after those bastards made off with about $500 and my drivers license...there's nothing funny about having your car broken into. And posting the pic is so others can see what is being done and how to perhaps prevent it. I sincerely doubt these low-life thieves use the internet or learn stuff from it.

As for muscle loss....depends who you talk to. After riding for a couple hours and pushing hard, your creatine-phosphate and glycogen storage is fairly depleted....many say the proteins in your muscle tissue begin to breakdown and you essentially start "burning muscle". I ride a mountain bike 3x per week, ascneding some 2,400 feet over the course of nearly 2.5 hours....there ain't a woman in a spinning class who could keep up with me.

I weight-train 3x per week as well. I only wish I could have caught those slimeballs breaking into my H2...now there's a fantasy!

I think your dopprlganger has been keeping the masses warmed up for you.

How's that mid-life going?

Once again my H2 got messed with while I'm at the gym. The bastards gained entry through the passenger-side door handle. They found my wallet and took nothing else. I'd like to thank GM for saving themselves $10 in metal and giving so charitably to the poor in making such an easy vehicle to break into.

Can someone, aside from the jokes, direct me to any real solutions to this? In particular, some powder-coated black metal plates that attach over the plastic? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Sorry to hear that Happened to me few months ago too

http://elcova.com/groupee/forums/a/tpc/f/5106011751/m/8...151069141#8151069141

While I don't have a solution to the door handle problem. I did install an aftermarket alarm so at least it will go off, unlike the factory alarm And since nobody pays attention to alarms going off nowadays, I installed the siren inside the cabin. I figure no thief in the right mind would want to stay in there and risk his hearing + not aware what's going on outside.. And for outside, instead of the common pulsing horn, mine is steady on - it's loud and annoying so it get's attention

Steve,

I did not see this "diagram" that is mentioned, but based on what you described, mine was similarliy broken into on the driver's side. The key entry was forcably pried which also cracked the black plastic backing. Upon getting it replaced at the dealer it was advised by Service to have the plastic backing replaced in chrome. The estimate for that was $500 plus for each front door. I did not have this done. However, I can't imagine having the metal backing will prevent it from happening again in so much what the Service guy was recommending was more of a visual deterrent than anything else?

You might be using the nutrient storage but not breaking down muscle tissue unless you are suffering from some kind of necrosis.

Sorry about your truck!!!

Yeah, comes from the stress of having family and a job.....you wouldn't understand.

I-man, we're cool, thanks

HummerMan...glad to see you're still around.

Can anyone explain who & how someone else is using my same screen-name & avatar? You can see from the post-count that this is clearly not me. I can understand the avatar copy, but the screen-name too????????

First my wallet and now my screen-name....damn!!!!

Oh yeah, hey Alec...good to hear from you to!

If I had to guess I'd figure some worthless bastard created a new screen-name and put an extra space after the letter R so the system thought it was different, someone with a lot of time on their hands and little of a life.

Paragon, you gots the skilz.....I'm sure you know who it is.

All doppelganging aside, the chrome backing does prevent this method of theft. It is solid metal, not plastic, therefore it cannot be pried up. Those things are expensive because of the labor time to install them. It involves disassembling each door panel, removing each window, and a lot of other stuff. The part is not exactly cheap either.

You'd be much better off just getting an alarm and it would even be cheaper than buying those blingy chrome door buckets.

Get an alarm and be done with it.

I'm not going to freak, it only seems to happen at the gym. The thieves rightly figure that anyone going into the gym is likely to need their drivers license to drive to the gym...but then they won't want to take their wallet into the gym. In my case they saw me reach up into my roof/above console and put something in there. They didn't open my center console, the glove box or even take my cell phone left out: they knew exactly what and where to go. BASTARDS!!!

An alarm may stop them, but only after they smash the door piece and cause some damage. I've got a line on a direct price deal for metal replacements....it's gonna cost, but...I dunno.
