Rise in Thieft
« on: June 22, 2025, 11:45:18 PM »
A buddy is suggesting I put on my soft top for the summer, and he assures me the hard top will be safe in the yard. He has never driven a Jeep, and he has never driven one with a soft top in areas known for crime. I am wondering if I should get a security box behind my back seat and maybe some under the seats? I used to drive a soft top in North Main, Winnipeg, and could never leave anything in that Jeep; everything had legs. Even groceries, if left in the jeep, would attract thieves. I caught a guy sitting in it while the alarm was blaring one day. I'm curious to know whether Calgary has transformed into North Main.

I do not have a place to park the jeep inside a garage, so it will have to remain outside. People in the past have popped the windows out to look around inside. And I am Okotoks.
