How can this be?
WASHINGTON - The Cadillac Escalade EXT, a $53,000 chrome-trimmed luxury pickup with leather bucket seats, a seven-speaker stereo system with satellite radio and a global tracking system, is the vehicle most targeted by thieves, a study by the insurance industry found. It’s the second year in a row that an Escalade has been at the top of the list, which was released Tuesday by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The Escalade sport utility vehicle topped last year’s list; this year, that SUV is third.
WTF? I am sorry but that thing is stolen more than any other vehicle. For crying out loud, our theives in this country don't even have taste anymore. Well that is until it comes to the least often stolen vehicles.... Taurus wagons and Buicks. "I'm just saying."

I'm willing to bet the Escalades are being stripped and the parts are transferred to the lower-priced GM SUV's.

Thom - maybe; but I'd throw in their shipment overseas as at least a third of the vehicles stolen.

i heard about that on the radio. if you have those spinner wheels the chance of it getting nabbed grows big time.
