I never do, because there's nothing in there worth stealing. I also figure if someone wanted to root around and look, it's better to leave the door open to avoid having a window smashed in.
Well, this morning we woke up to find my passenger door wide open and the glove compartment emptied onto the floor, the little compartment betweeen teh doors opened and emptied onto the floor, etc. Someone rifled through and just left the door open. I think my battery will be dead now, but I haven't checked yet. No biggie - just get a jumpstart and we're good to go.
H is all upset because he ALWAYS locks his car door and doesn't understand why anyone wouldn't. He argues that someone could mess with your unlocked car very easily (just like last night) and that the argument against getting a smashed window doesn't hold water because most thieves are opportunistic and will go through an unlocked door but won't bother/risk smashing a window.
I feel pretty much indifferent on the subject, but since he feels so strongly about it, I'll lock the door from now on (or try to - I'm just not in the habit).
What do y'all think?
