Since this is the only going car related thread today does anyone look at any stats related to crime in choosing a car? A coworker had the rims stolen from his Texas Edition F250. I was not aware but they are

  • $4,400 to replace new
  • Highly sought after
  • High rate of theft
I just crossed off Texas Edition from my list. Tuesday he came out of his house to find his truck up on cinder blocks and the rims and tires gone. His house is 300 feet from the road and he was sleeping thirty feet from his truck when it happened. A couple months ago he found cinder blocks in the ditch outside his home, so he guessed someone was targeting him. He bought the wheel locks, but it turns out that you can buy kits to remove the locks at Sears or wherever auto parts are sold. LOL nice system. I wonder if they put those kits next to the locks.

Hah, that cracks me up that their is a "Texas Edition." :)

All the makers have one. Texas Edition, Lone Star Edition, etc. From Dodge to Toyota. Usually is will be larger and nicer rims, upgraded sound system, badging, etc.

Everything is bigger in Texas!

 

I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Texas is a larger market than almost every other country, honestly.
