    My buddy's Mustang had an alarm and his stereo was stolen anyway. While the theives were at it, they stole the alarm too. Just make sure you have enough insurance.

    Spoken like a true victum. NEVER NEVER NEVER are you ever asking to have anything stolen from you. Its a down right shame that people have to live in these conditions. I have to go into Baltimore alot and it kills me to see bars on almost all the windows and doors. They have places built that way, its called prison. I would take what ever I had to do to move to a much safer neighborhood.

    I agree 100% with Dennis. Sometimes it's better to make a few sacrifices for the safety and well being of the family. We live in a rural area so we don't have as many problems as people in major cities, however since my post above, my house was burgarized, in broad open daylight, we wern't home, all the neighbors were home and seen and heard nothing, they are realitives would have done something if they had of known. All that was taken was two of my sons guns, I have since recovered both. It don't matter what you do, if a theif wants to steal your stuff,they are going to find a way. I just hope nobody tries anything like that when I am home, I will shoot first, ask questions later.

    There was something called a T-lock advertised in M&F a while
    back. It is for floor shifted A/T. There is a key lock to prevent
    the transmission from being removed from park.

    It didn't say who made it or where to get it.

    if you have an electric fuel pump install a hidden kill switch on the power lead. i have used several ways to hide switches. you could also move the battery to the trunk and install a kill switch. like what has been said-- if they want it bad enough they will get it but i will make them work for it. also get GOOD insurance.
