Dear Forum: Maxima reported as 2nd Most stolen Car!!

...Yep , here in Atlanta on channel 11(WXIA) they mentioned that the maxima comes in second behind Cadillac's EXT SUV, an that another cadillac model is 3rd behind the maxima.

My question to the forum is what can we do better to protect our cars, think about it. Go to the nat'l Highway safety website an it will give a list of the cars.

Is that a national thing or just the atlanta area? I know around Chicago the max isn't even in the top 10 or 15. In the part of the city I live in it's maybe top 25 with like 4 toyotas and 4 hondas being in the top 10. Last years list http://www.automobilemag.com/news/news_11/

This was in "USA Today" today, they mentioned that only the 02-03 maximas are popular with theives because of the HID's. The acual car is less likely to be stolen.
