Not joyriding and other random thefts. Just like car alarms we become complaicent on the technology and the true effectiveness is in reality, limited.I.B.

Then a real estate agent brought some junkies thru the house for a look see. That night the car was gone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
