[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Should all drivers in the DMV have some sort of steering wheel lock? I drive a 2009 Toyota Highlander with nicks and minor dents and Baby on Board stickers and I've been telling myself we're safe since no one would want to carjack/steal this. Am I naive? I'm hearing about stolen cars so frequently.[/quote]

I would for your car, because its so common on the roads. Blends in very easily for a black market resale.

Further, insurance payout on your vehicle won't be enough to get you into a new or similar used vehicle. So you'll need to put up more cash to quickly buy a replacement if your car is stolen. And you'll be forced to buy whatever is available on the market at that moment in time in your area.

In short, if you have a used older car that runs reliably + well maintained + you want to keep it for a while, I'd definitely get a steering wheel lock. Because getting a replacement will be expensive and more than what your insurance will pay out.
