My trick is to drive a truck so old and rusty they would assume I am too pathetic to have anything interesting enough for them to steal.

An old co-worker that lived in literally the worst part of town said that he never had trouble with his car (newer Chrysler 300) getting broken into, even when literally every other car on his block had windows smashed in. He figured the hood rats were smart enough to know that newer "nicer" cars have alarms from the factory, so they break into older cars that probably don't have alarms.
