I'm surprised that the EVO is on there, but subies did not make the top 10 considering all the aftermarket stuff most of their owners put on them.

Well the difference really is that the STi actually has a decent ignition system you can't pop with only half a pull on the dent puller or twist open with half strength on a screwdriver, the Evo on the other hand...

ahhh, makes sense then.

I've talked to some adjuster since I work in a claim center and I'm not surprised about the Esclade at all. They said GM's anti-theft is really easy to defeat, and they think GM wants it that way so the cars are easier to steal so they can sell more cars. Well that is their conspiracy theory.

Even if they did they would only get a block before a wheel fell off or it stopped running:chuckles:
