I previously posted about protecting contents inside a 200. Now I'd like to start a discussion about protecting the vehicle itself from theft.
What do people see as risks and associated safeguards? If you have a very valuable 200 and you're going into the middle of nowhere, perhaps after you pass through some downtrodden areas, or if you are perhaps stuck parking in a high-theft area now and then, what could/would you do to protect the vehicle?
Someone on here posted about a theft via OBD port/key creation. So how about a hidden kill switch for the ODB port as one idea?
What about a wheel lock to prevent against a thief towing the truck away?
GPS tracking unit?
For fun, I'll throw in a crazy one: smoke-generator to fill cabin with smoke upon forced entry--used on some yachts.
