Car Owners: What Kind of Anti Theft Security Do You Have?

[HiTek21]

Currently I have no security other than the locks on my door and a detachable radio face. My car is rather old and doubt anyone would want to waste their time stealing it but I'm planning on getting a new car soon and wonder if I need any other form of anti theft other than a car alarm. Like the Unbreakable Autolock or LoJack. I remember back when my parents were buying a new car few years back they got discounts from their insurance because they had extra security on the car. Is this true?

My 89 mustang has an alarm but I never use it. I get tired of it going off when the wind blows.
My 89 caravan turbo is a beater so I don't worry about anybody screwing with it and if they do oh well.

my fists.

I leave the keys in it, leave it unlocked and leave $20 on the dash, I still cant get anyone to steal it.

I lock my doors.

I catch you hanging around my car and I will layeth the smacketh down on your rudy-poo candy-a$$ with my baseball bat.

Alarms are nothing more than annoyances anymore. I hate them and do not use them anymore. If a thief wants your car it will be gone. I live in a neighborhood where there is no reason to worry about this kind of stuff anyway so I do nothing more than lock the doors.

I don't have any fancy anti theft devices in my car.
I just hide a smelly sock some where in the car. Instant gratification.

Unless u have an old car (10+years) , cars nowadays have measures in place against starting them when u do not have the right key (chip in the key or something like that) so if anybody wants to steal a car that person has to be somewhat professional in order to have success.

I leave it unlocked if someone really wants to steal it they will. Also I am tired of getting my windows broken out. never had a car stolen just many windows bashed in but I do have an accord and not a BMW but accords are stolen allot more than BWMs.

btw I have 2 friends have their car alarms stolen from their cars

Ha ha! Yep. I was going this direction but you beat me to it. I drive cars from the 90s.... 1990 . I have a Subaru Justy (looks like a tomato with 13" wheels) and a Plymouth Sundanc (which looks like... well... a small family sedan). My cars just aren't interesting enough to steal. They're the opposite of status symbols.

Hell those aren't old!

I have a 72 VW squareback a 82 Plymouth Sapporo and a 62 Jeep FJ 3a.


THOSE are OLD (and crappy, I don't wanna forget CRAPPY!)

My Maxima has this really lame system that really accomplishes nothing. Now, to the potential thieves: My car has a shotgun rigged so that if anybody opens the door JUST the wrong way, it will blow your balls off.
