Would auto lower on lx570 prevent cat theft? (1 Viewer)

[tacoduck]

The recent rash of cat thefts is extremely alarming. Luckily, I usually park my truck in a garage, but I’m worried about being far from home and dealing with a cat theft. Would the auto lower function make it harder to access my cats?

Just a little harder, they usually run around with jacks, but apparently don't use jack stands..

I consider this a reasonable price for the peace of mind. I travel a lot in my LX and often have no idea if I’m in a questionable part of any said town that I’m passing through. Having said that, it’s usually the nice part of town that these thieves are operating in.

Yeah, just get the Cat Guards - they're a solid investment as they're probably cheaper than your insurance deductible.

I just got mine a few weeks ago and the peace of mind is worth it alone.

Another option, especially if you are not interest yet in skid plates or want to carry the weight around.
