To prevent a justified visit from the animal cruelty folks, I park twice a week on a crack street with the passenger door unlocked.

Wondering if anybody out there knows of a way to deter car theft. Recently, my truck was broke into through the drivers side lock cylinder. Apparently this is a very easy way for dishonest people to gain access to your vehicle. They simply pound out the cylinder, then use a screw driver for entrance. I will not replace it for somebody to bust again.
What are some options? Ford doesn't offer a keyless entry handle without the lock cylinder........

Door break in fix
I have found a fix. Look up jimijammer online. Install the steel plates on each door. Remove the driver door lock and install the plug. Your keypad and remote will still work. I had mine vandalized as well it took the thieves less than 5 seconds - I have it on surveillance video. New 2015 F150's look like they have removed the locks altogether according to what I have seen online.
