Re: Anti-Theft ?

Some great ideas here.
I don't live (currently) in a high theft area for vehicles but I would put myself in a thiefs shoes for a minute and then solve it from there.
Any thief wants a quick, quiet, clean get-away...with absolutely no attention drawn to them.
So in my books any of the above measures for preventing the start electrically is a good idea...then anything that allows the truck to move, at most, 50ft or 3-4 secs before an absolute stall or freeze is a good idea. If the vehicle stalls in the street...that guy will run....at least that is my thought.
Again...no one is going to start troubleshooting an immediately stolen vehicle in the middle of the street...they will bolt. They might troubleshoot it while its still quietly parked tho'....because nothing is obvious there.
My two bits.
