Default F150 Security

I recently bought a 2014 XLT 302A & about to add a 6" BDS + wheels/tires. Hard time finding a solid answer, so wondering how my fellows F150 lovers secure their rigs.

It has the factory passive alarm, looks like they all might, & I recently bought the perimeter alarm module plus long range remote start, but haven't installed yet.

Is that plus wheels locks going to be enough? Of course no matter what if they really want to get in or steal it, I'm screwed. But hoping you guys can share your thoughts & advice.

Thanks!

If you're really concerned about security you should consider buying a LOJACK system. http://www.lojack.com/

Wheel locks don't really do much, might stop kids but that's about it. These trucks are easy to break into so don't leave spare keys inside, LoJack if available to you is a great option IF when your truck gets stolen you want them to find it.

I would just as soon prefer to never see my truck again if it got stolen.

Good insurance is peace of mind.
