My brother had his Buick Grand National stolen from our drive in the
Chicago suburbs in '89.  No anti theft system, no kill switch...got away
clean.  Cops found it in the city the next week, no wheels and engine
blown.  He had dropped his car insurance 3 months before.

I don't think there are any real rules of thumb where thieves are
concerned.
