I'm also thinking in getting one of these babies:

You guys think that's overkill?

I just want the thief to really work for his theft, you know...lol.

How about you guys?

None of that would significantly slow down the guy with the flatbed when you park it at the movies/mall/friend's house/where ever.

It's interesting how people always list their firearm(s) in this sort of post. Around here if you shoot someone while stealing your car YOU will go to prison.

On my "good" car I've got a removable steering wheel and an agreed-on-value comprehensive insurance policy.

The key is to shoot them in the kneecap or legs so you are not attempting to kill them. And then make sure the police know that you were "threatened" and you felt that your life was in danger. You will be okay and the thief will walk with a limp in prison for a few years. haha.

Galactacz!
Nice work. Any Oaklander knows what it takes to keep your car safe. Seems like you have done a very good job. Mine is still a little more vulnerable than that.
I have:
1) Viper alarm with starter kill, tilt sensor, doors, trunk & hood sensors
2) Club
3) Hidden battery kill switch
4) Tire locks all around
5) Master lock on hood
6) Motion sensor lights
7) S&W .357 Magnum, fully loaded

I am going to add electrified door handles soon. Probably about 220v to each door handle. Just enough to burn the handle imprint into the thief's hand. LOL!!!

If i were a theif i would just tow your ****!

thats an impressive list, on mine you cant figure out how to get it started, it wont run right, you have to balance the brake and the gas at a light to keep her running, so you wouldnt get far.

USMC,
Why don't you get your car running right? Is it so people can't steal it or does it just keep things interesting?
