    I always keep my trailer padlocked--if for nothing else it's the only way i can keep from losing my padlock--really--anytime it leaves the latches on my wagon it's gone! LOL

    Totally off the subject:

    I have a 7K farm tractor that I need moved from Dover, Ky to my farm in Danville, ky. Does anyone know someone with a dully and goose neck that could hall it. Or a good load board where I can get someone?

    I do have Volvo. When I lock my truck I turn ON the ECM immobilizer code. Click click click the code. Done deal. The scum wont start my truck.
    Anyway I do have a nasty-ugly steering wheel blocker and air-brake locker.
    Now go and steal my truck.

    In EU they sell Volvo with build in key immo transporder (Megamos). and you can start engine with stock key only. Lost keys is a real problem (LOL)

    IMO. cameras with motion detectors and motion detector light in cabine will help, You will see whom to shoot ))) LOL

    And simple Chenese car alarm with shok sensors and motion detector will save your truck. GSM warning and GPS trackers help too!
