While I agree the average crackhead walking by wouldn't know about our trucks, there are also professional thieves who are looking for certain vehicles for parts, or just lowlife s.o.b.s that want a nice shiny hood bird, or maybe a very old crackhead who wants a new battery. I will be finding a way to add a lock to my hood, haven't figured out how yet.
I think however you lock it, it should be easily accessible in case of a fire.
