The thing I like about that steering column lock is that it's huge and bold......the hope being that the POS who's about to steal your rig will see it before bashing out a window or doing other damage, and just move on to a more opportune target.
IMO, just hiding an interrupt of some sort, somewhere, still "allows" the POS who's intent on taking your rig, to break in, destroy the ignition lock so it can be twisted, and only then would he find out the truck won't start. So yes, you keep your truck, but there's a bunch of damage to fix. My hope is that the column lock avoids all this.
Get on youtube and you can spend hours watching guys with instructional videos on how to pick every single type of lock that's ever been produced.
All you're doing with any of this stuff is either slowing a thief down, or (hopefully) helping him make up his mind that the time investment isn't worth it, and he could get caught, so it's too risky.
Look at what modern manufactures have done...chipped keys, because they couldn't create a lock system that was bulletproof/pick proof.
The break locks and steering wheel lock bars are a joke, and easy cut. Not worth it IMO.
How did I say "black" had anything to do with it......other than that's who stole it, and that's who's residence all of our belongings and most of the Blazer parts were found? Just stating the facts.
There all sorts of ways to keep the vehicle from being taking, but IMO, keeping it from being an opportune target is about 90% of the equation.
i guess i am wondering why blacks was relevant to the discussion is what i'm trying to say.
If they were white would you put that in there?
If he would have said the guy was heavy set would you be offended? Using a descriptive in retelling a story isn't offensive. Sheesh...can't even get out of bed without offending people these days. Glad we don't have any real issues to worry about in the world.
