My tow truck is a 99 f450 i paid 8k for 2 years ago.You know how many cars i have towed at 3am with the alarm screaming no one ever looks out.Even driving by a cops i never have gotten stopped.Look up a gps jammer you can buy them online and they do work.Yes its illegal but they still sell them and they do work.

no one uses a rollback anymore a standard pickup with a wheel lift can take a car in under 30 secs.If they are willing to steal a car they probably are armed too.Watch how fast this one is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qsvAvb5NMQ

In that scenerio I am defending my life from an armed assailant, pretty sure that's legal in every state? (maybe not CA, can you own a gun in CA?) I have found that most every criminal is willing to kill someone just to escape capture so there's no doubt if they come equipped to kill they usually will.
I don't want to take the OP's thread off topic with gun law discussions but may start a poll with another thread - how many have had a car stolen via wrecker, not repo'd, illegal parked...but actually taken and stripped, etc. I'm guessing <5% and how many of those were classic cars taken?
Let's get back on topic with what the OP asked, what specific alarms or lojac do you use or have experience with?
Some prevention is better than none, why lock your house? They can drive through the front door with a wrecker in 3 sec....

Bingo! We've gone full circle. Which car will be stolen, the one with the keys in the ignition 'cuz the owner is scared the thief will hurt him for not cooperating and having the a/c on for him or mine with the alarm parked in a garage next to dogs and a pissed off gun owner (or my well equipped shop)? I'm looking into 2 way alarms first off, personally. For anyone asking I'll suggest LoJak although I'm not real trusting of our local-yocal report filing crew, I mean, law enforcement. When I simply asked a similar question a couple of weeks ago the first several responders were the same way - couldn't answer a simple question yet felt the need to input totally useless advice - so, yes, there's a bit of a chip there.

My point was insurance covers all if they want the car bad enough it can be stolen.One of my friends had a 68 camaro in a storage unit working on it on the weekends he can't keep it at home.Well he missed a weekend or two it got stolen and had no insurance on it.That was 2 years ago the police still ain't found it yet.
