Is there such a thing as too much security?

I ran across this car in a parking lot yesterday.

I guess that this will deter non crack head amatuers!

Nah, silly.

You get 1 off by using a cable/bolt cutter on the steering wheel. The other would come off with it.

That's really a sign of a small small brain. I thought everyone knew just how useless the club and similar products were.

Yeah, I thought it was widely known if they want your car that bad, they would not think twice about taking a bolt cutters to the steering wheel. Hell a tow truck does wonders too.

I didn't think people still used those thing.

Then I saw a lady use one on her Corolla last week.

I have a trunk monkey is that excessive? The only down side is feeding it and cleaning the crap out of the trunk.. For some reasons primates cant clean up after themselves.
