#stolen. If you are in the denver area, my 2003 Super cab, long bed f250 Super Duty was stolen last night at 2:30 am. It is a good condition truck with bicycle Colorado plates, a “Rosebud was a bike” sticker on the bumper and a blue @projectbaja sticker on the cab window. If you see it please call denver police district 1 at 720-913-0400 #fuckthieves #stolencar #f250 #ford #superduty
