Hybrids — and Toyota Priuses in particular — are also a “major target” as their converters tend to be less worn than those of traditional automobiles, the NICB said. AAA also reported that Priuses carry more “hefty amounts” of precious metals than many other models.

Those things ride low (for aerodynamics), so definitely needing a jack for them. Maybe that’s what Nascar jackmen do on weekdays?

Our cul de sac looks like a Prius parking lot. No mufflers stolen, yet, but most neighbors don’t leave their Prius alone in a parking lot. Their spouse or a friend stays in the vehicle while the other one shops.

Another reason to order on line and pickup your order while staying in the vehicle.
