Default Tow Truck Protection?

Everyone knows: "if they want it they take it, all they have to do it tow the car". I personally have had 2 of my cars stolen from me and I personally dont want any of my other cars taken from me anymore. The "cause for alarm" thread has helped me tremendiously in trying to keep my cars in my property! Now my question to you guys is, is there anywany from stoping a tow truck from taking your car or atleast doing some damage to the tow truck so that theyll think twice before towing it?

Look into the clifford 210c gps tracking this will get it back if they tow it if its installed right.

Its hard to stop a tow truck from picking up a car. But it will be very noicey and locd because they will have to drag the car. or try to go jack it. you have try to but the car to the ground with chains like other members are doing

It is hard to stop a tow truck from picking up a car. But it will be very noisy and loud because they will have to drag the car, or try to go jack it (raise it, put it on a bed...)

You can try tying the car to the ground with chains like other members are doing.

Also get the motion/tilt sensor

I don't even worry about tow trucks. They're just not common enough to even worry about unless you're in a particular area where it's a problem. There's other things to worry about, like meteors, tornadoes, aliens,.. those are just as likely to happen.

On the other hand a two way paging alarm with a tilt sensor goes a long way. But gps is the ultimate protection as wrx-killer mentioned.

Well the aliens are the worst since they just lift it off the ground no touching or tilting of any kind.Even GPS gives out after they are a light year away or so.

Time travelers. They come back here, take our jobs, jack our cars and warp them back to the future as vintage cars. That explains the missing cars when there's no pile of glass. (Not tow trucks.) Son of a bitch.

my buddy has a mini truck. its on airbags, body dropped, shaved everything, and the tires tuck too far to put anything threw them(not that anything would fit threw his wheels).

when he parks somewhere he knows he should not, he lays that sucker down. when its that far on the ground, its hard to even open the doors after he pops them open
