A Mississippi woman was shocked and appalled when she recently took in her Dodge truck to a dealership to be serviced, only to see it being driven on the road minutes later.

It all started when Penny Ivey Thompson took the truck that she lovingly calls "Big Bertha" in to be serviced at the Mac Haik dealership in Flowood. A few minutes later, she could not believe when she saw an employee of the dealership driving her truck on the highway and tailgating another car. Horrified by this, Penny hatched a clever plan to get "Big Bertha" back.

Penny started by snapping the above photo and posting it to Facebook.

"That moment you see a Mac Haik employee test driving your Dodge down Lakeland Dr TAILGATING another vehicle," she captioned the image. "I followed him to see if my truck would make it back in one piece because I know it doesn't stop on a dime and this point just wanted him out of it."

Penny followed her truck until the man driving it stopped at a Lowes's that was around two miles from the dealership. For the next twenty minutes, Penny waited while also calling the dealership to see if they knew where her car was. Then, using her spare key, Penny took Big Bertha back and left the man who had taken the truck stranded at Lowe's!

"Ya know...every now and then I get crazy. I will own that," Penny recounted on Facebook. "I found my spare key out of my purse and I steal MY OWN DODGE from Lowe's parking lot. Ya see, I'm a Home Depot kinda girl anyway. He comes ol' dummy swinging his shopping bag and I never checked up. He never looked up. He just stopped and stood in the parking lot. I left him in the parking lot stranded."

Penny immediately headed back to the dealership, where employees offered to service her car for free and begged her not to post about what happened on social media. She refused, and her post has since gone viral.

"Do not met (mess) with my family, my animals, my money, or my truck," Penny concluded. "Nobody drives Big Bertha like that. Nobody."

That's what he gets for messing with Penny and her Big Bertha!
