I dont know why they have it, cars are NOT a secure place to keep valuables, even though the doors cant be opened the windows can be broken.
And if they want to steal your truck they will, super lock or not.
And if they steal it, so what, let the insurance company buy you a new one.

eh
Even if they do steal it. It would make them stuggle nicely. I'd be laughing in my head. The truck is prety high to begin with so even if they break the window they will quickly find that they will not be able to open the door. They would have to jump up and when they get off there wou'dnt be a door to get out of. I mean who the heck has superlock besides Land Rovers? No body would no. Even if they did that would mean they would look away saying its not worth the trouble. Besides doesn't superlock imobilize the engine so they can't turn it on no matter what?
Lol I have to say to the person who got stuck. Nice
How did that happen? hehe

The alarm disables the fuel pump, super lock deadbolts the doors.
If super lock is engaged and your battery goes dead you cannot get inside your truck, you get off the plane after being on vacation for a week and you just want to get home and you cant get into your truck.
Your wife comes out of the mall with her hands full, the baby is crying and she cant get into the truck.
If they really want your truck the will take it, no matter what, let them have it, its just a truck, you can get a new one.
To me it wouldnt be worth the hassle to be locked out of my truck at 2am leaving the strip club and having to call a cab to come and get me and then try and get the truck home the next day.
If they are going to steal a car it is going to be a newer one.

Hmmm true that
It makes sense
It just intrigues me how though.
If it turns off the pump and locks the doors they should have some problems there. You Know?
Unless they get tractor and tow it...I'd have to do sperate research.
I've come to a conlusion only use it when you have a brand new battery, and you're like in a foreign country like Mexico.
My insurance doesn't cover there...
So yeah
