    Probably the only thing that'll slow down a tow truck... assuming the boot is put on correctly and can't be removed by airing down a tire.

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    I can’t beg anyone to steal my truck and when they do break in my cigarettes are still there (so they’re health conscious) but too stupid to know about the coin holder on the left dash so my coinage is still there. Yup, they aren’t getting any smarter.

    Thieves are pretty often not bothering with hotwiring anymore - it takes about two minutes for experienced thieves to have a truck on a dolly or even onto a flatbed and gone, just like a repo man, and in some places the truck will be chopped and slagged within 48 hours.

    My cousin handles auto theft in New Mexico and he says it's getting more and more common for ranchers to find a pile of stripped frames out by a back fence line when they make their yearly rounds.
