It sucks having to constantly be paranoid about the possibility of your car being stolen. Especially because its happening in broad daylight too...

I'm not saying these are beaters, but the Blue Book on them can't be that much. Could they be being stolen to order for parts? Curious thefts; the youngest car was 21 years old.

I didn't see it reported via WSB but according to the seattle crime map there was a car prowl on our block 2 weeks ago. Not sure which neighbor's car. Hmmmm. I've gone as far as ensuring that both our cars (one daily driver, one n-aiii-ice sports car) are always parked inside - day or night. Garage has an upgraded non-HomeDepot-grade lock (similar ot our main door) and a door open sensor on the garage side door. Garage door has a roll up sensor. Both are hooked up to our security system. Bright lights outside both entrances. Only thing missing is a set of motion sensing gattling guns. I keeed I keeed - about that last sentence. My last name does not rhyme with LaFear.
