Active Anti-Theft

Besides saving me a few bux on insurance, I was wondering what are the advantages of this system over the standard security system?

From what I've heard everyone talk about here, the active system has motion sensors in the map light console. If it's armed and you grab your can of Cuckoo Cola from the cupholder through an open window, the alarm'll go off.

Likewise if you bump the car, I guess.

'Course, people who actually have it may want to chime in here.

i guess my car has it i've been surprised quite a few time by reaching in my car whilst it was locked and hearing my horn right in my face. mines sensitive but not to sensitive like you can still bump into it with no problem but reaching inside is a no no lol

Luis_GT · December 12th, 2007, 01:25 AM

I have it and it seems to not work on mine... meh... non of our cars ever had alarms, so I could really care less about it...

tsp_2177 · December 12th, 2007, 01:27 AM

yeah i have yet to have the need for it thankfully *knocks on wood* but i like that its there.

Luis_GT · December 12th, 2007, 01:28 AM

whats the point... if you're at the mall, you're not gonna hear it anyways

tsp_2177 · December 12th, 2007, 01:29 AM

well maybe i would

we have a really small mall...
but yeah i could really care less if i see someone messing with my car there getting an ass woopin anyway if i had an alarm or not..

don't act so high and mighty... they must carry a blunt object in order to infiltrate your car...

tsp_2177 · December 12th, 2007, 01:36 AM

well i would try to put em in the icu they would pretty much have to knock me out for me to stop...

thats one thing that pisses me off instantly is if you mess with my car...

Luis_GT · December 12th, 2007, 01:37 AM

again... Blunt object > fists

tsp_2177 · December 12th, 2007, 01:43 AM

yeah but i wouldnt think about that till i wake up in the hospital lol

Luis_GT · December 12th, 2007, 01:45 AM

which would be after he splits your head in half and steals your car... then again... who would steal your car....

Modern_Muscle · December 12th, 2007, 02:28 AM

yeah, first time I bought my car, and reached in to get the keys I left in the seat at the house...
horn went off, I thought it was kinda cool.
plus, with the PATS system on our side, we are not un-stealable, but very very hard to.

Blunt Object < Objects that go Bang

Only if you don't know how to use your fists....

Fists, feet, elbows, hips, foreheads, knees, shoulders... all quite effective blunt objects that can put an aggressor in the hospital.

But only if you know how to use them.

The point of the active security system, I believe, is that you're not around to defend your car's honor. Hell, my first reaction when I accidentally set off my car alarm is to run. Fight or flight is an instinct.

Alarm's not gonna stop someone who knows what they want and owes someone some cash. But for 99% of everyone else, they'll pick an easier car to infiltrate before even trying something that is likely to have an alarm. Deterrance is never having to use the alarm.

ive looked like a loser about 5 times in the car wsh reaching for my ticket ....then fumbling for the keys to turn it off!! im with HMUSN....I use Trunk Monkey!!

06RedfireGT · December 12th, 2007, 01:32 PM

Mine doesn't have the active anti theft, but still with the alarm it has anyway, plus PATS, it would be pretty hard to steal but if somebody wants something bad enough they will take it.
