I can even talk with experience. 12 years ago I was leaving for work, but ole yeller wasn't there! Some a**hole stole it during the night. He bought a ign. switch from a parts store, reached up under the dash, disconnect my switch, put in his, and took it on a 3 week 500 mile cruise.

He didn't damage the truck except cut my seat belts(?). Left it sit at a senoir citizens center. I was lucky that my voltage reg. stuck, cooked my battery dry and it wouldn't start for him.

I didn't have my kill switch in it then, but I do now!
