I like the way you think... steering wheel laced with black powder?
What are you guys using for theft deterrents?

Vehicle owners (victims) should be the ones that dole out the punishment.
You do you. If you are worried and want your Jeep back, this is one way. But, whatever floats your boat. Services aren't free.

you have to hand it to them, they have an effective solution. Apparently thieves have come to grip with that too
When the dash lights up and says 299,257 miles.....and rising....
When I say I'm approaching 180k on mine, some folks ask when I'm trading it in on a new one? When they bring the 4.0 back out with fewer electronics than the one I have now with the same wheelbase and only 2 doors.
I agree subscriptions are out of control, but I have been using CarLock for over a year now and it’s the best $10/month I’ve ever spent. Car insurance is also a monthly subscription, and in my opinion, a monitoring tracker is a lot more useful protecting/recovering the Jeep than insurance ever will.
It alerts me if my doors are opened, motor is started, battery voltage drops (like the cables were cut), or if it is physically moved (like on the bed of a wrecker). And it will continue to let me track the position for as long as the a battery is connected, and even 20 minutes after the battery is disconnected.
Controlled on my phone, so there is no bulky key-fob. No annoying car alarm to bother the neighbors, it just alerts me on my phone with an alarm sound (which sounds similar to every military movie when they go to DEFCON 1).

Theft “deterrent”? Its visual appearance does not instill an “I want THAT vehicle!” in the eyes of a potential thief. It’s 28 years old and the Arizona sun has blistered the paint off all horizontal surfaces and there’s a huge oil stain under it, so it looks like an abandoned vehicle and not something a prospective thief would expect to break into and drive away without doing a lot of mechanic work along the way. Maybe if he brought a set of tools and knew where the closest auto parts store was located.
So yeah, I don’t really worry about it being stolen.
