Yesterday a young dude was sitting in our parking lot between cars on the parking curb
25 ish
He had sandals, durag, backpack Hawaiian shirt etc
I work in an industrial setting & most are dressed accordingly
Lots of walking traffic in the area
Not sure why he decided to park his ass in our lot
I asked him & he said his phone was dead & he was waiting on a ride
He was in between cars away from the road sitting on a curb out of sight by passing cars
After 20 minutes he got up & walked down the street about 1000 feet & was picked up by a BMW
Not sure what to think
You SOB s have me paranoid LOLOLOL

If someone is sitting in my cul-de-sac for more than a few minutes I go ask them what they're business is and I live in a gated community.

Fuck that. Never be fearful.

Our neighbor has a TRX & he was 10 feet from it
Tough to trust people these days

Years ago I snuck up on a car parked by my place in the county
I scared the shit out of 2 guys
They told me they were observing an individual

I'd feel better about the HA's in my neighborhood! At least I know what to expect.

Similar to the guy in a shit car who parked so close to my Durango in a parking lot for about 20 minutes one day I could have not got in if I wanted? We just observed what he was going to do from the office. We had absolutely no explanation for his position or WTF he was doing. My car was parked in a real remote part of the lot with absolutely nobody around it because it was so unreasonably parked at that distance from the office doors. The Durango has its RF Hub locked out. He finally simply drove away and out of the parking lot after 15-20 minutes.

Oh I may add the Durango was parked square in the middle of Aurora, Colorado; #1 location in the USA for auto theft!

He was trying get a lock on it. When he couldn't, he left.

Two days ago, I parked under a tree that was out of sight of the doors or windows of the business I entered. I was in there for several minutes. When I came out and around the corner of the building where I could see my Challenger, I see 2 young guys (wearing back packs) having just got out of a Jeep Renegade walking toward my car (only car in the lot) the Jeep departed and when they saw me they changed direction toward the rear of the store I had left. I watched them as they got to the store door, they obviously had not been there before.
Coincidence ???? I admit, I felt good about the steps I have taken to discourage theft.

 

[ButterDaGreat?]

Oh look Kia is 6th and they get sued for making it too easy for people to steal

 

[Deano]

The sad reality is, anything done to stop a thief can be defeated giving enough time.
Other than the pager signaling me, I don't know a sure way to thwart a tow truck.
I'm aware of turning the wheels and locking the steering wheel, which can be cut off, or with with dollies or a flat bed, say goodbye. Yes, I have a tracker, if they don't know about it and defeat it.
Anyone have any thought on that?

Makes me wonder if there picking up fob signals & coming back later ???

My business is not in the best of neighborhoods....commercial/residential zoned..the surrounding neighbors are good people..(we look out for each other)...we know who's not supposed to be there...be it a strange car..or just the occasional straggler....I ALWAYS confront them....some have said what are you some kinda cop or something...my standard reply......no I'm worse...I carry a gun...and with me..you have no rights...now move along....
