Just a heads up for anyone "hoping" their car gets legitimately stolen one day for insurance purposes:

unless you can prove exactly what condition the car was in, the insurance company will only give you the value of an average condition car. This is assuming it isn't recovered of course. Oil change receipts isn't what they want, recent pictures will be required.

So, your "mint" 10+ year old vehicle that you have appraised at X value isn't going to worth anything close to that amount in "average" condition.

I have one of the best security systems I had house on an AF base, and after this deployment I will have one again On a Military base. My FRS stays in a garage and its non electric garage Locked from the inside. Installing a Viper alarm system soon too. lol

It also Never leaves my sight when out eating. Grocery shopping I dont worry about either cause I do that on base lol

Not saying stolen cars dont happen on bases, BUT I'm betting its WAYYYYY less likely to happen.

Thieves usually go for higher production cars due to the fact they are harder to fins a stolen one. I.E. The Corolla. Plus like everyone said, all the security items on these, like a manual transmission, really makes them really hard to steal.
