Exactly. Even with the wheels turned all the way one direction all it takes is a good wrecker operator with a movable lift, winch and skid pads and they can have it loaded in 5 minutes. I had a B-body loaded onto a wrecker and being driven off in less than 10 minutes and the wheels were jammed to the right. Add in the fact that all the guy has to do is tell any bystanders that he's a repo man and the car is being repossessed from a deadbeat and most people will fall for it without question.

So, if someone REALLY wants your car, they are going to get it.
