Doesn't matter what you do if they want it they will get it.

Lowjack will take care of amateurs but not professionals.

You can have a removable steering wheel, alarm, kill switch, garaged and 3 cars parked in front. They will find a way.

The only thing you can hope is that the layers of security will frustrate them and they will move on to someone who hasn't taken the precautions you have.

this will also slow down or deter a car thief even if they use a flat bed truck . I use two, one in the front and one in the rear wheel

I used to want someone to make a device where if the car is hotwired the whole thing would blow up lol. Then I decided that wouldn't be a good idea because of all of the bystanders. But it would definitely stop the thieves

take your wheels off add 2 donuts and your car is theirs,

But this really does suck, there is new equipment now that they sell @ car shops that is like lowjack but unlike depending on police to find your car you can track where your car is and how fast its going etc via GPS on ur computer

I read this when you first posted it up, I am still infuriated by this story. I know how it feels to have a car stolen. When my car was finally recovered it was stripped and whatever they couldnt take they broke.

THIEVES

I hope everything works out brotha!!!!

Im sorry to hear man, I know how it feels mine was stripped right in my garage. They tried to steal it by jamming a screwdriver in the ignition but just ended up ruining the ignition so they stripped it right in my garage instead. Tucked away in my garage living in the country where my next neighbor is a 100 yards away and they still got to it...you cant hide from scumbags these days.

I have never had my car stolen or stripped (knock on wood) but i had my lake house broken into and they took EVERYTHING even the food and drink from our frige. they also took our family pictures which prob pissed us off the most. we waited up every night for the longest time loaded up hoping they would come back for the little that was left over but they never showed up again, which i guess is typical. Its prob a good thing or someone would have died for sure. lol
