    This is one of the best advice I've been hearing over the years. It is better to have a low-key vehicle rather than get what is the most popularly targeted by thieves. And when you do get your ride, try not to put on things that can draw attention to your ride like a loud sound system, expensive DVD screens, lotsa bling items.

    I remember a thread here by a guy who lost his brand new Hi-Lux to thieves ( I think last year). I really felt sorry for him because he had "the works" done on his ride.

    But I guess if you really have to get a flashy ride then you have to change your attitude just a bit by developing a big slice of paranoia so that you can be one step ahead.
