Lojack Experience


Iowa Andy writes:
Last night we received a emergency phone call from Bobbi (the daughter). She then put the Tucson Police department on the phone. Bobbi's car, 2007 Honda Civic Hybrid, was stolen from in front of her house.

A week ago her apartment was burglarized, (while she was asleep?!?!) her bass guitar and car keys were stolen. She reported that to the police but not to us. $1350 to get Honda locks changed, not able to afford that she just took everything of value out of the car. The apartment manager changed her apartment locks.

Cops say college kids are easy and common victims to predators. The kids have stuff and they are unaware. The Honda did have Lojack. The police would not pursue the thieves unless Bobbi and her mom agreed to prosecute. "Damn right we'll prosecute" says Bobbi.

Thanks to Lojack, the Honda was recovered within a couple hours miles away on the other side of town in a trailer park. The thieves tried to remove the speakers, tearing up the interior. No arrests made.

I love this artwork! Did you create it yourself?

How about "THE CLUB" as a cheap deterrent

No, I didn't create the art. I just did a Google image search for Lojack. I like pictures.

As for "The Club". that requires complex action on the part of the owner, besides having to remember to set it up each time. Good for someone who has the mindset, no so good for me. I prefer to have an unremarkable car and insurance.
