Door Handle question

Someone took a knife and pried open my drivers side door. He saw that I had a GPS holder stuck to the windshield and thought I would he would find the GPS in the truck. I don't store it inside the truck for that exact reason. Well anyway they didn't take anything, not even the loose change in the coin holders. One thing he did do was leave me his buck knife that he had used to break in with.

Is there another door handle setup that I can get to make it harder to break in? Just wondering.....

Got a nice knife out of it and he didn't even really hurt the truck or handle...

Steve

What a retard! Ends up leaving with less than what he started out with.

I dont think id put too much thought into making the handles harder to pry open...then they'll just take a brick and chuck it through your window.

last time I had a vehicle break-in, they just broke out the windows and took what they wanted. Didnt even bother trying to "break in"

There has been a rash of breakins. All they are going for is cars with GPS's either visible or those with GPS mounts. They are just looking for the easy score.

Good idea about the knife.... I mean the sta... nevermind......
