  Just call a tow truck. No need to resort to revenge. Them having to retrieve the truck and pay the fees should be enough of a deterrent without giving them reasons to call the police.

    Towing is more expensive and takes longer.

      Even better. I didn’t think towing was more than a couple hundred dollars.

        I think they meant the person who calls for the tow has to pay upfront.

        Not everyone can afford a couple hundred dollars to get at an annoying neighbour

      Not if you slash two or more tires 😈 Tires are around $100-200 a piece to have mounted and balanced, and that’s usually either a used tire or a bottom of the barrel one. If you slash one they can replace it with a spare (assuming they have one). If you slash half or more of them they have to get the vehicle towed and have the tires replaced, that takes a lot of time and money. That could easily be like $600, getting your vehicle released from the tow yard if you pick it up within 24 hours is usually only like $150.

    They’d have to prove you did it in the first place. Sure, you may have the motive, but “innocent until proven guilty”. But yeah, the other owner could be a vindictive asshole and it would just start a war.

  Tire inflation valve cores are surprisingly easy to remove.

      That truck doesn’t have tire pressure any higher than a car does. It’s the large trucks like semi trucks and dump trucks that have the high-pressure tires.

        Definitely not true. I have a relative with a truck similar to the pictured one, and the rear tires are around 85 psi. If the individual thinks they need tow-worthy tires, they can definitely get them.

      You haven’t done any property damage….? Until they start driving 5 minutes later and the tire goes flat mid drive which causes it to explode. The vehicle than loses control and hits a completely innocent random bystander.

      Congrats, you just committed manslaughter for petty revenge.

        Deflated tires don’t explode, that’s overfilled

        If you have a flat and try driving on it: that’s in the for destroying your rims and tire

      I’ve deflated thousands of those tires by pulling the valve cores. It’s fine.

    Yeah but then you’re even more stuck because now the truck is stuck as well…
