What is wrong with simply calling the police and reporting a suspicious vehicle and letting them check it out? No need for anyone to start a confrontation or think up a wild scheme to run him out of the neighborhood.
Jeff is correct.
-Just because one has a CCW, a firearm, does not make them Wyatt Earp or Marshall Dillion. Not even if they have a CCW badge .
-Communication is a huge key in life, whether it is calling the Police, or knowing your neighbors.
My mom has been called at work and informed a certain make and model was in her driveway, and this neighbor had called the Police.
It was me, simply in another vehicle, that had gone over to do some minor repair.
Officer was real nice, polite and I even offered to call mom at work and the Officer said it was OK, he remembered me, and then a neighbor came out, visited with the Partner and was embarrassed.
I thanked the neighbor for paying attention, and calling the Police.

UC LEOs, PIs, Insurance Investigators, Postal Inspectors, etc. Have a job to do.
I never to spoke to them first, I never walked up to a vehicle they were in or even waved.
They had to speak to me first.
Most often, we used codewords or signals, as sometimes I too might be working and did not need to be tipped off.

You get a spouse, suspicious the other one is having an affair, and is following the other, and get your nose stuck in where it don't belong, and you are liable to get hurt, or worse - because YOU are the one they suspect is having that affair with a spouse.

Oldest trick in the book. Attract a victim by feigning getting the wrong address, car broke down on the street in front of a house, or similar.
Easy to kidnap a person, kid, gain access to a house.
Some gun owners do more harm than anti-gunners with postings.
