so last night my dad told me at around 5 am he saw some guy parked next to my car looking into my cars window just looking into it my dad had to sound the alarm twice to get him off you know i dont live in a bad neighborhood i dont understand why we still get weirdos around here or why everything i have is so attention grabbing my last car which was a nissan nx i had to deal with teenagers sitting on the hood now its a creepy guy staring into my window at 5 am anyone else deals with this lol

 

where do you park your car? in your driveway or some parking lot?

 

The problem might be that you don't live in a bad neighborhood. If you want to steal things you don't go to a bad neighborhood where people don't have much, you go to a good one. The pickins are better.

 

sorry-- that was me.

(not)

In all seriousness, I agree with Trike. People go where the gettin's good.
Though 5AM on the east coast in winter is a stupid time of day to be inconspicuous if you're casing a ride. If he drove up then maybe he was casing for a buddy. The fact that the 1st alarm didn't phase him prob means he was just admiring it --

or he was on meth.

 

It was derf ................ I found long ago to have a stock head unit and never have the windows tinted more then 20% so those like derf can look inside and see there is nothing to break into the car to get. I keep nothing in my car. I never leave hoodie laying about so derf thinks I have something hiding under it. Sorry derf but you did say it was you. If you look at my wheels you'll see I have 4 types of lugnuts all using a different key. Maybe I over do it abit, maybe not. I'll just say I've had one car broken into and one set of wheels and tires stolen before I started following this rule I came up for my cars....Oh and another rule to follow, don't sit around where your car sleeps thumping bass. derf-on-meth may be doing a drive buy looking for hits, and you just advertized that your car has something to get.

 

I could probably leave the key in mine with a "For Steal" sign in it and it would be safe. It's pretty ragged on the inside and folks around here are snotty. I love it!

 

If ya leave a ragged out child's booster seat haphazardly mounted (?) in the back seat, that will usually deter any thieves (they figgure if you got a kid, you ain't got anything in there they'd want)

 

lmao well i park in front of an apartment building where i live the worst i have here is druggies who late at night park around the lot and light up joints or watever so my guess is that it was a tard high off his a$$ maybe he saw a unicorn in my car but what im thinkin about doing is putting a life size scary looking clown in the passenger seat and whenever somebody comes near it the clown screams lol

 

Sounds like a good idea -- plus, if ya leave them blown up during the day, ya can use the HOV lanes on the turnpike .... LOL

 

I too do not live in a "Bad" neighbor hood, but crooks do manage to get around. My neighbors van was stolen from the drive way one night as an example. But, I periodically get some one looking at the Saturn and/or maybe another car and asking if it is for sale.
It is surprisingly not too uncommon.
