You don’t see them much anymore because once they became widespread, the thieves discovered that they could quickly cut the steering wheel and pull the Club off. The Club will stop a joyriding teen, but not a pro.
Nothing defeats the PROS from stealing your car if the want it.
I had a buddy who bought the first H2 Hummer in New England.
Six months later he drove it up to Montreal for a wedding.
Parked it in the secured lot at the Marriott.
When he came back from dinner the Hummer was gone.
He had to rent a car to drive back to NH.
Six months later he got a call one morning at our office from Interpol. He thought someone was screwing with him. No they were very serious.
They had located his Hummer based on the VIN# on the engine block in Cape Town, South Africa. Could he please come down to the FBI building in Boston to give a deposition.
