The Great Jeep Heist


Contributed By: Ed Pedersen

This was thought up when one of the former List members who worked at the Toledo Plant mentioned rumours of there being "forgotten" complete SJ's in the bowels of the plant...
This was created in the mischievious mind of John Meister..

ok,
so here's the first cut at the plan:
Michael & Ken "acquire" a C130.
Doc "arranges" for a submarine
Eddie finds a suitable satellite
Mark W. gets a backhoe
John "arranges" for rail transport
doogie provides detailed maps
Henry arranges for delivery of new ZJ
Joe #1 arranges for delivery of new TJ
Joe #2 arranges for a tugboat

Ok, so here's how it works:
Michael & Ken will fly over the Toledo plant, Doc will parachute onto the roof, then rappel down the chimney.
Doc will make his way into the inner chambers and prepare the SJ's
Eddie will use the satellite to override the security system
Mark W. uses the backhoe to cut the power to the security shacks
The train pulls along side the plant
Henry walks in and begins paying for the new ZJ, with pennies
Joe #1 comes in and tries to pay for the new TJ with Mexican Pesos.
Doc connects a tow bar to one of the Sj's and preps the second
They drive out onto the flatbed car
the train carries the two SJ's out to the river
Mark shows up with the backhoe and lifts the SJ's to the waiting Tug
The tug rendevous with the sub
the rescue team is lowered into the sub
The Tug goes over to the airport where Doc & Henry drive them onto the C130
The C130 takes off flies over borelando, doc jumps.
The C130 flies to Seattle, one of the Sj's rolls out onto the tarmac
John drives his new SJ home
the C130 flies to Reno, the last SJ rolls out
Henry drives it to Orlando for Doc.
Michael and Ken return the C130.
Joe #2 tries to figure out how to hide the getaway tug
Eddie returns control of the security system
Henry drops off doc's new sj
Henry goes to Daytona beach, catches the sub for a ride home...

So there it is.  The plan should work great.  Should be the greatest heist in history...
a couple of questions come to mind...
like, what is the name of the song "send lawyers, guns and money?"
should we plan for "war crimes" trials before or after leaving Toledo?
should we excavate more tunnels while we have the backhoe?
should we use the sub to get the SJ's out of Toledo?

Just might still work!! :)
Eddie in Vancouver, Canada, eh
