Insurance study shows Ford F-250 most coveted by thieves
The Ford F-250 crew cab is the new vehicle of choice among thieves, replacing the Cadillac Escalade on the Highway Loss Data Institute's yearly list of most stolen passenger vehicles.
Posted — UpdatedThe Escalade fell from first place to sixth, largely because of new anti-theft technology.
"General Motors has put a lot of effort into new anti-theft technology, so that may help explain the decline in the Escalade's theft rate," Matt Moore, vice president of the organization, said in a statement Tuesday. "On the other hand, sales of the Escalade have fallen in recent years, so there may be less of a market for stolen Escalades or Escalade parts."
