[QUOTE="Rruuff Day, post: 104381, member: 2217"] Many years ago I was in Miami and read an article about how a fellow use to chain the front bumper of his sports car to a palm tree in his yard. One morning he came out of the house and his car was turned around and the rear bumper was chained to the tree with a note that said " When we want it we will take it".... Sounded a little far fetched at the time but does tend to make a point.... Insurance! Insurance, Insurance....Short of sleeping in your car with a 12 gauge (and I'm not even sure that would work), I'm not sure there's anything you can do to deter car theft... especially a professional thief. We had a Ford F350 diesel flatbed stolen right off our lot at work. The steering wheel club was laying on the pavement. The police said they all carry a cordless reciprocating saw now and just cut the steering wheel to remove the club and run the saw blade right into the ignition switch to start the vehicle... A battery disconnect switch might help.... but if they have a tow truck, that probably won't work either.... A no trespassing sign might work in your hometown Bill but it sure doesn't here... I have two 30 inch square custom signs displaying video surveillance on site and no trespassing. One at the beginning of my driveway near the road and one on my fence in the yard... Left for work a month ago and looky looky... someone stole the sign out by the road....lol.... [/QUOTE]
