There are a lot of "financial combustion" thefts in Alberta when oil prices drop and all the oil sands workers can't make their $1500 a month new diesel pickup payments anymore. But I wouldn't think a Metro would be high on the list, though they are easy to take, and if I was a young hoodlum walking around in the cold in the winter I would rather take a Metro than walk. So anything you can do to make it look like more work than it is worth to take would help. Immobilizer is good, but by the time they figure out they can't take it they have already punched the lock or bent the window frame out on the door. I'd get a cheap club for the wheel, people can get around them, but more likely they will just move on to the next car with nothing in it. Just my 2 cents.
