Getting tired of seeing members here getting their trucks stolen, living near Albuquerque now I have some concerns about my ride (not that anyone would steal a 2wd). So i'm wondering if an alarm has kept car thieves at bay for members here.

I always see it like this if someone one really wants your truck all you can do is create speedbumps for them. That being said I would go more of a hidden kill switch and usally try to install yourself or someone you trust. I knew a lot of theives that worked in installing alarms and knew how to get around them.
