A few years ago I thought of getting a truck gun. Got a small safe to bolt onto the floor under the seat. Hadn't installed it yet when someone broke into my truck. If the alarm went off I wasn't home. Console & glove box were open. Door was ajar. Papers on the floor but there was nothing to steal. Then someone at work broke out my window but nothing in it to steal. Then some broke into my car at work & just stole my garage door opener. At this point I'm rethinking keeping a gun in my truck. Then on my neighborhood watch (next-door.com) people started reporting their cars getting broken into & one had a new pistol stolen. Ok, no truck gun. I won't even leave my gun in the truck 20 minutes to stop in a place I can't carry. I'll take it home. Maybe newer vehicles are harder to break into, I've got a 2000 Ford Ranger XLT. I don't like the idea of arming criminals with my guns. Just my personal preference.
