Unfortunately, that's not as unorthodox as one might think. I've seen this kind of scenario before. The best one was a guy who used a tow truck to steal a dressed up model of the same pickup that he'd leased a few days before. He then stripped the interior of the fancy truck and put the nice stuff into his leased truck... pulled the truck out to the boonies and set it on fire. I guess no-one thought to tell him that components can have identifying marks on them...
