My old digicam in the sentra, my stereo, sub, cds, and a brick of marijuana.

In the maxima they'd get only CDs and a crate of crack rocks.

Sounds about like the directions to my old farm. Get on new route 33 and turn right when you get to old man Pat's barn that looks like it caught fire once. When ya get to the top of the hill, a few miles later, turn left when you see the new Wallace house. You'll go down in the valley and then start climbing back up the hill. At the top, y'all 'll see a couple of posts where the old county line sign used to be. Turn a hard left real quick - there's a little dirt lane that leads back to the farm. Follow it back, but make sure you make a right when you get to the pole with the electric transformer, cause if you don't, you'll wind up back in a field and we won't find you for months.

Hrmm, someone could steal my visor cd wallet with burnt CDs in it, my $5 fake oakleys if they checked in the arm rest, an ice scraper, a blanket, my 'Pirates of the Carribbean' skull and crossbones window sticker, the stock Honda tape player and the 6CD changer if they checked the trunk, my baseball glove, a frisbee, a deck of Euchre cards (I am from MI, duh), a pen, a screwdriver and tire pressure gauge if they check the glove, and maybe $.73 in loose change in my covered cup holders.

Overall a lot of stuff, but nothing worth breaking into a car for.

They'd get a scarf, some gloves, a towel, a handful of change, cheap sunglasses, air freshener and salt packets from McDonalds.

my $75 piece of crap CD player
my CDs
my books

that's about it. Nothing valuable in my car, and my car isn't even worth the time to break into it.

A monopod, a broken 19" monitor, and a tripod.

A co-worker works part time at a local comedy club. He had his Jeep Cherokee broken in twice. Both times they stole his cell phone(the first phone was broken) and smokes. The first time he had in the back area of the SUV, in a duffle his new(to him) parachute rig and altimeter, which was not taken.

Mine's not locked, so why would they break in? You guys lock your cars? You ALL live in high crime areas? Man, I pity you guys?

Phone charger, sunglasses and an ice scraper. Oh, they could also get some pieces of glass from the LAST time my stupid car was broken into. I'm curious how it got in the glovebox. I hate having stuff in my car,
 

A pair of flip flops, a $100 Pioneer CD player, a few burned CDs, an ice scraper, and a U-M student parking pass (currently pro-rated to about $15).

Considering some jacka$$ stole my car cd player 2 months ago and I've been too fricken poor to replace it, they would get a handfull of electric and phone bills scattered throughout the vehicle. The imaginary thief would also get his/her pick of various magazines I've signed up for yet never read.(PC World, Game Pro, and TV Guide to name a few). Hell come to think of it, if someone came and took all that crap , they would actually be doing me a favor by cleaning out my car. :p
