^^^ This, or an aftermarket alarm with starter kill. Can get one installed for often less than a deductible would cost you. Why wouldn't you?
Especially if you are driving one of the most stolen vehicles out there, locking your doors just dosent cut it. A lot of people need to be MUCH more proactive
Or as someone else mentioned, a security gate, They cant steal it if they can't get in.
Glad to hear they caught the scumbags this time

I was picking up donations today for our upcoming annual fundraiser for the Fire Department, and I wrote up the panel for his offering;
Thanks going out to ********** for their generous donation of a very nice pair of Tickets for March 1, 2018 Edmonton where you can watch Nashville beat the Oilers.

In both cases the RCMP said the use of firearms was the best thing we could have done. In neither incident was a shot fired by us. One incident resulted in the RCMP firing shots at the perps while apprehending them. In all 4 cases the scum bags pled out for lesser sentences and two of the guys had priors for violence. I was present in court for each scum bag. Hiding under the covers has never been my thing. Neither is bending over.

X2 Hiding under the covers has never been my thing. Neither is bending over and just let things happen if i am going to be the victim i will used anything necessary for protecting my family myself or my property!. And im ok with saying i've dealt with issues and i sleep good every night and so we all should being a victim of scum is not in my vocabulary.

ALL of these guys have made a conscious choice at some point that puts them in this position wether they are pro criminals or just meth heads trying to score.
Our justice system clearly doesn't work to protect honest folks and blaming the cops is not fair ( the ones i know personally are as upset with the way it works as i am) in our area our rural neighbours have banded together to keep watch over each others places. we have caught more than a few scum bags and so far the courts have released all of them.
I sure wish we had castle law here....and for those who say stuff is not worth a life.....if you value your life soooo much keep your grubby mitts OFF MY STUFF. that's your choice...otherwise it's not I that puts a value on your life but you.

You get my vote for Minister of Justice.

Nah, I'm just a guy who has insurance. I wouldn't lift a finger. I'll just get new stuff. But you on the other hand, can't afford to lose a few rags.
