Losing your car to thieves sucks. A Greeley, Colorado man had his Ford F-150 truck stolen in 2015 and two years later was still without his main set of wheels. Now, thanks to Facebook, he has his truck back and a suspect is in custody.

Greeley resident Marvin Trevizo filed a police report in 2015 after he went outside to find that his 2003 Ford F-150 wasn’t where he left it. Fast forward to 2017, and it still hadn't been recovered. A couple weeks ago however, Trevizo was browsing Facebook and a photo caught his attention. It was a very familiar-looking truck that he was seeing because the picture had been “liked” by a sister of one of his Facebook friends. Not only did the truck on Facebook have the same dent as his and the same set of custom wheels, it showed a man by the name of Gustavo Almanza-Pena standing next to it.

Chatting with his Facebook friend, Trevizo discovered that Almanza-Pena occasionally lived at a condo complex in Windsor, Colorado, so he headed over to the complex and saw his stolen truck parked outside. He then went to the Windsor Police Department to inform them of his discovery. Police officers drove to the parking lot, spotted the truck, and noticed a dodgy-looking temporary license plate with an incorrect VIN. Once Trevizo produced the keys to his truck and unlocked it remotely, officers had the truck towed.

When contacted by the police, Almanza-Pena told them that he “bought the pickup in Pueblo… after finding it on craigslist.com,” according to a police report obtained by The Greeley Tribune. Other parts of Almanza-Pena’s story of how he acquired the truck seemed fishy, and the title he produced was for a 1999 model, not a 2003 F-150. The police weren’t buying it. "[Almanza-Pena's] explanation for possessing the pickup did not seem truthful or logical, and based on his admitted possession of the pickup, I placed him under arrest," wrote the arresting officers in their report.

Now Trevizo has been reunited with his beloved pickup, and Almanza-Pena is facing felony theft charges, all thanks to propensity of people to do stupid things and then post about them online.
