So i was at my Friends apt. this evening was there maybe and hour, i go out to carport and my drivers door is a bit open and my trunk is open! I'm not happy about this since my car has been stolen and broke into once before also..I'm worried i feel numb thinking about this.If you all know i own a 91 Accord EX #2 most stolen car in America as MSN auto has reported..Ok im not rich in fact im struggling so i have no $ for a really nice alarm system and can't afford the FULL deal insurance. I love my lil Honda but i feel i need to get rid of it before it gets takin or broke into again..Anyone have idea's??? And yes im thinking about another Blazer lol

Whats in your car thats worth breaking into? If its an aftermarket stereo, take the faceplate. Otherwise, remove all the valuables

Go Blazer.

General question. How high/low on the most stolen list are Blazers in the US?

Subaru is the most desirable for car thieves here.

#35 is Chevrolet Compact SUV (Blazer)
#43 is Chevrolet Blazer (i'm assuming full size)

I had the 'Club' on it! and i have like older alpine cd player..nothing was taken dont leave much in it since i got it back after it was stolen back July..All they did was tore through glove box and made a mess!

Get a hole saw and install keyed dead bolts on the doors:D

Mr Bean had a padlock on his Mini's door. As far as I know,it's never been broken into or stolen! lol

Given the curcumstances you mentioned, it might be somebody close by in the neighborhood or even somebody who knows you slightly. Something to think about.

If it is so high in the stolen vehicle category, wouldn't your insurance be pretty high too? If your insurance is high I would trade it in for a blazer and just take whatever money you save in insurance to put in your tank and/or do some mods, pay some bills, etc.

He also had a Brick for the accelerator.

Honestly I don't think it really matters how much money your car is worth, or how much you put into an anti theft system. People will always do and take what they want. My 2001 Kia sephia..was locked when some punk kid broke out the window, took my purse, and stole all of $5.00 in spare change. They caught him in the act...and why did he do it ???? and I quote "It was the first one I saw." my 1994 cavalier RS. Doors open, portable cd player stolen. The blazer? Some punk kid found one unlocked door, took a screw driver to my after market $200.00 cd player...yeah...top of the line..dumb kid almost broke the face plate...he didn't know it was detachable, obviously.

anyways...long story short...people will break into what ever they want..doesn't matter if it's a 200,000 dollar car..or a 500 dollar beater for a joy ride. Just don't keep anything of value in your car.

So i have talked to friends n family and they all think i should move onto a lil less interesting car...Since my car is rated #2 stolen in the US and out of the 45+ car's ive owned in past and never once had any broken into til now i think i best move on..I want a Blazer but...I think the gas prices will go back up so im kinda not sure bout that..But here are a few of my thoughts and like some ideas also, Thinking Contour had one liked it..Newer Malibu? Stratus? Neon? prefer a 4dr but looking also into another Beretta? ZX2? I need some pros and cons. I think i could get around 2200 to 2500 for my Honda so either cash or a trade..Let me know your ideas?? Thanks

I'd go with a nissan maxima or toyota camry. Also any gm make with the 3.8L is a damn near bullet proof vehicle and you can find 'em fairly cheap. But really any foreign make will out do most domestics 2:1 when it comes down to it- from what I've seen.
