My dad still looks up trunk monkey videos, albeit once in a blue moon recently. Maybe they stopped making them.

i find that car alarms are only installed on really lovely cars that would be more of a burden than an asset once stolen. usually theyre the ultra sensitive type that go off when a motorcycle drives by or rain drops land on the car.

it doesn't deter theft at all and only serves to annoy the poo poo out of everyone in earshot. i think we've found something truly indefensible here

If you wouldn't keep stealing the change out of my ashtray, OP, I wouldn't need the car alarm.

the biggest mystery is when someone breaks into a crappy car.

My friend had this ancient hideous 1980s era volvo but still got broken into by the local crackheads in DC.

I had someone break my window and steal a mix CD and a dollar-something in change from my old 1984 Dodge Caravan with 210,000 miles on it.

BONUS: It was in a hospital parking lot when I was visiting my mother after her surgery that day.

I had a new (at the time) celica and some dumbass broke in to steal the factory stereo. Totally hosed the dash, the ac, tons of electronic controls, etc. caused 4k of damage and he didn't get the stero out lol. Finger/Palm prints were all over visibly on the windows, dash, etc. cop shrugged and said "nah we got better things to do".

Every car I've put an aftermarket stereo in has had that poo poo stolen within two years of installing it. Meanwhile my factory stereos never get touched (because they aren't worth poo poo).

itt goons not understanding that the whole point of a car alarm is so that potential car thieves will see it and move on to case some other car. A little blinking red LED or a window sticker works just as well though, so car alarms are p dumb unless combined with a dead switch of some sort.

I had just that. Toyotas just made a flsher on the dash. Even a dumb rear end can figure that out.

He saw that Bose logo and couldn't resist. But it had brackets into some type of titanium kryptonite I guess. :shrug:

its hard to remove a car stereo when you're high on meth and can't stop thinking about picking hair follicles out of your balls

If someone carjacks one of Google's self driving cars, will it just call the police and drive to the station?

of course, car alarms made this possible, so there is a little silver lining to them
