    Somebody was doing donuts on the highway onramp by our house and flipped their Charger, the steering wheel was *cut cleanly where we presumed there was a club.

    My buddy recently had his hellcat stolen out of our office parking lot 1:30 in the afternoon. The thugs pushed it away with their other stolen car. Doesn’t matter if you have an ignition lock if they really want it. A steering wheel lock may help - that’s what I bought. Tevlaphee On Amazon.

    That’s essentially how Ravelco works.

    Yep, not good to buy. All they do is cut the steering wheel and slide it right off...

    Bunch of videos from Defcon talking about how this works, and how you can steal a Toyota in about 90 seconds.

    On Defcon's YT there's tons of videos talking about the problems with OBD.

    That’s how long it took them to steal mine.

    Here’s my anti-theft device:

    Seriously, I’m considering tapping the clutch interlock and add a hidden switch.
