Just saw this article about those carjackers in Milwaukee causing a fiery crash. Man, that's crazy. Makes you think twice about leaving your tools in the truck, huh? I always lock mine up, but you never know.

Yeah, I saw that too. Those guys are idiots. But it's a reminder to keep your vehicle secure. I've got a lockbox in my truck for my expensive tools, and I'm thinking about getting a kill switch or GPS tracker. Anyone else do that?

Kill switch is a good idea. I've got one in my garage for my classic car, but for my work van, I use a steering wheel lock and a hidden GPS. It's a shame when you gotta think about that stuff, but better safe than sorry. Also, that crash was insane - hope no innocent people got hurt.

Yeah, I saw it on the news this morning. Looked like a movie scene. Anyway, I'm gonna order one of those GPS trackers off Amazon. Can't be too careful, especially with all the Milwaukee area thefts recently.

For sure. And if you do get one, make sure it's hidden well. I hid mine in the rear paneling of my van. Took the thieves a while to find it back when I got broken into, and the cops recovered the van before they could strip it.
