I handle auto theft claims for a living and far and away I see the Dodge Grand Caravan and early model Hondas leading the pack. It's ridiculous how easy these vehicles are to steal. :shame:

But why steal cars that old?
Because they're so easy to steal. Lots of vehicles are stolen just for transportation...it all depends on the motive of the thief.

Expensive cars stolen to move out of the country, popular cars stolen for parts, large SUVs and pick-ups stolen down on the border for transporting drugs.

We see lots of cases where a previously stolen pos is dumped next to where our insured's car had been parked and the thief just switched vehicles.
