When my dad gave me my 2003 Prius, the only thing wrong with it was the remote control only unlocked the backseat and passenger doors, and the driver's door needed to be locked manually. Because I've never had anything stolen from me, and my family left our front door unlocked for most of my life, I just got used to not locking my car. I just kept it completely empty and only locked it in bad neighborhoods.
The other night, someone "broke in" to my unlocked car and moved a sweatshirt from the back seat to on top of the trunk. The only thing they had taken was a broken Powerbook I was about to pay Apple to recycle for me if I couldn't find someone on Craigslist who would take it. They left behind an empty jam jar and a large string of oversized heart beads.
I was driving to work this morning and went to plug my iPhone into the tape adapter. Gone. I drove to work listening to the radio. I have another tape adapter that is broken - WHY didn't they take that one instead of ripping the adapter out of my tape deck? I rummaged through the center console. It seemed surprisingly empty. They also stole my green-armed "Go Ags" wayfarers. Clearly, the thieves were children.
Luckily, they didn't take my Fastrak, my hiking boots, or my tennis racket. And now they're stuck with a broken Powerbook without a charger and I don't have to deal with it anymore.
haha or they're ravers that left their "candy" in your car.
