Default Official Repo Thread!

Alright so i got a job at another repo company and i thought i would share some pics and vids so you guys can really see what happens.
This won't include all the tough work. Like skip tracing and door knocking and tons of phone calls.

About the company. They have three trucks. 03 f450 with 400k miles on it. 09 F450 loaded. and a ford flatbed. The 03 has cameras on it to run plates and they also have a monte carlo with cameras on it. (my future ride) Also have a white FX4 i almost forgot about. No specs on that though
I'll take some pics of the fleet


Well yesterday i picked up my first car with this company.
02 Thunderbird financed through GMAC (odd i know) She actually works for GMAC and lives in an apartment building. The order has been out since July and no one has been able to get into the parking garage.
We sat on the place for about 20 minutes and then a car pulled up so i walked in behind it and went and looked around for the car.
Sure enough it was there and i had a key but it wasn't a transponder So i had to let the tow truck in and hooked up and then a security guard comes from no where.
Well here is a couple vids. Couldn't get pics because it was so dark.

Well i just picked up another. Me and two of my buds last night. 06 Chrysler 300. Has gone through 3 different companies and no one could find it. It was my friends first one and he was excited. Her son kept trying to get into the car and we didn't know why.
Here is the videos






The car


And the surprise i found as i was tieing down the steering wheel

Only repo show I ever saw that is close to what it is like. It use to be on A&E I think. It was called Repo man stealing for a living.

Operation repo is a joke I watch it for the laughs

Yea operation repo is fake. It's dumb because it ruins everything for us. people see the shit on there and think it's fine because they never call the cops. Well we definitely call them. lol
