My read on alarms and stuff is the more the merrier (it can be taken too far
though) to deter the average punk kid out for kicks or your radio. If a pro
really wants it, it's as good as gone unless you sleep in your truck. Even if
you sleep in it, you may wake up on the other side of town. ;-) With that said
I gotta believe that a pro wants to go for the easiest target so in the best
case he/she may think twice and grab somebody else's vehicle.
For the steering wheel lock, yeah, you typically need to take the pressure off
to turn the key... I've been in some rigs that this is a real b*tch but my Kota
isn't bad.

Hey I think maybe i'd consider the loss of my dak
knowing that some punk thief is plastered on a guard
rail somewhere or maybe severed in two
hahahahahahhahaha
back to reality
if anything it gets in the way, causes problems, and
is hard to get to to cut at! Come on guys i just
spent $60 on the darn thing dont tell me its useless
already. Let me at least believe that between my
Alpine alarm with motion sensors and this thing, it
wont be as enticing for crooks. I plan on adding the
kill switch unit to my alarm too. That basically
leaves towtruck pulls. hmmmmm twist wheel, turn off
to lock steering wheel, and parking brake should take
care of the pull-towtrucks. With a flatbed you're
screwed.
BTW does anyone have problems with the steering wheel
locking??? Theyre supposed to right? All my other
vehicles did........mine does sometimes but mostly
doesnt. Also i need to releave some pressure from it,
when it does lock, to be able to turn the key in the
ignition.....is that nor
