[QUOTE="Tom Schindler, post: 789631, member: 56140"] The neighborhod I grew up in you would hzve to leave your doors unlocked. If you didn't, they would break the window to look in the glovebox and trunk. It was cheaper to let them open the door and look that replacing the broken glass. My uncle had an old Chevy dump truck he used in his business. It had the dual side saddle gas tanks. He was getting gas stolen all the time. So, he put water in on tank and parked it so the thief would hide behind the truck to steal the gas from that tank. Set the thief up. He had enough gas in it to make it smell like gas. Sure enough, the cam was gone and the tank was dry...that guy stole a tank full of water. The gas no longer came up missing. The thieving stopped at his place. I would much rather have gas stolen than a hole drilled in the tank. Tom [/QUOTE]
