Look, we're all well-adjusted adults here, so we already know that there isn't a "best" vehicle to steal. (And we're not just saying that because our moms read this site.) But the absolute worst kind of motor vehicle to make off with is probably the one that an Oklahoma City man recently stole.

According to the Enid Police Department, 34-year-old Joshua Karpe allegedly helped himself to a Frito-Lay truck—one that had a giant, immediately recognizable picture of Doritos on the side of it—as it idled in the parking lot of a gas station in Oklahoma City. The Frito-Lay driver saw Karpe pulling away with his truck and tried to get him to stop, but the thief kept driving. And driving. And driving.

Karpe led officers on an hour-long chase that covered almost 100 miles and stretched across three counties. The pursuit of the snack chip-covered truck required the participation of four different law enforcement agencies: the Oklahoma City Police Department, the Enid Police Department, the Oklahoma Highway Patrol and the Garfield County Sheriff's Office.

"I would love to know the motivation of stealing a truck that's very, very easy to spot and doesn't go very fast," Capt. Jeff Spruill of the Oklahoma City Police Department told KFOR. "What do you think you're going to do with a truck like that?"

Just imagine if they’d have legalized pot in OK. LOL!
Gotta keep those Doritos under lock and key.

That young fellow was just making off with what would have been a long-term supply of Doritos in his parents’ basement, while he was gaming and needed sustenance. Seemed logical at the time....

Tropisms excite some pretty powerful and basic drives.

“Oklahoma Man Steals Doritos Truck Resulting in 100-Mile Chase...”

He was just looking for a safe place to pull over and let the cops arrest him. Was he wearing an Army uniform?

A Doritos Truck that could do 100 mph?   Oh I think not.
