^Well Jake is obviously out of hiding now so that's why I brought up the point of trying to call him. What could go wrong with what I said earlier? The way I see it there are a few things we can do.

1) swanny approach: Storm down there and have a wicked sweet road trip on the way. Get there, not find Jake because he's hiding or something. Look around for a while and try to get into a locked house or garage and more than likely fail misrably. This could possibly lead to vandilization of some sort which puts us in trouble with the law just like jake.

2)We can continue trying to get the law involved. I've called a few times and as soon as they hear about car parts or w/e they think it's not a big deal (that's how it sounds to me at least). The only thing I see working with this is if we took the "send a letter" approach I brought up earlier.

3) We can simply try and call him again and if he doesn't answer he doesn't answer. Or if he does, we can discuss our issue with him one on one. Like I said before, 95turbogsx could arrange a meeting one on one in person so Jake might actually show. I would then stay in winona untill the job is done. In my case I'm just trying to remain calm now that jake is out of hiding and hope for the best.
