    It is cheaper to steal someone else's vehicle than to get a job and buy their own. Nothing but losers and there seems to be an epidemic.

    What a bummer. Sorry it happened to you. One feels so violated when that happens.

    My car is a 50's custom and the door handles and locks are shaved off and the doors are smooth where they were. I cant lock the car but no on knows how to get in there with the missing handles.

    It takes a key less entry remote to open the doors and trunk but my fuel pump and my ignition is wired to a relay that if you do not use the remote to get in the car it will not start.

    But knock on wood I have never had anyone try to break into it, and I am so sorry to hear that it happened to you.

    Several years ago, one of my cars was stolen. My DD was with friends in VA., when she had to go to the bathroom. While she was in there, the other two drove off. This was about 3 hours away form home. We reported it and then I prayed about it and prayed about it abd then told God to take it because I was getting to stressed out about it. The two showed back up, they sold the car down in DAytona Beach. The cops could not do anything, because we could not prove which one drove away in the car. So they walk around free. Two years later, I get a call from the police. Someone tried to get it regestered. I drove down and brought it home.

    Car alarms? IMO they are a joke. Ever hear one go off? Do you see anyone rushing to the car to see if anyone is stealing/breaking into it? Nope! Car alarms sounding off nowadays is just like any other noise, people ignore them.
