When reading news stories where the RCMP have caught rural thieves, they are now more often than not, finding loaded firearms along with drugs in the stolen vehicle. It seems to be the trend now.
We installed a gate last year along with 5 of our other neighbors. We also installed a yard light.
What some folks are doing that have gravity fuel tanks, is putting gas in the tank marked diesel and diesel in the tank marked gas. Locking the fuel tanks doesn't make a difference, as the thieves always cut the locks but, see how many miles they go on the wrong fuel.
I remember several years ago, a friend ran out of gas and only had a barrel of diesel with a hand pump for refueling his tractor in the field in the back of the pick-up. It got him to a service station but, he said it was sure sluggish. Not sure how gas in a diesel would work.
