In a press release (MS
Word Format),
the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) lists the top ten vehicles
by make, model, and model year most reported stolen in 2008. The
top ten are:
1.
1994 Honda Accord
2. 1995 Honda Civic 3. 1989 Toyota Camry 4. 1997 Ford F-150 Pickup 5. 2004 Dodge Ram Pickup 6. 2000 Dodge Caravan 7. 1996 Jeep Cherokee/Grand Cherokee 8. 1994 Acura Integra 9. 1999 Ford Taurus 10. 2002 Ford Explorer "Certain models of older
cars and trucks are popular with
thieves because of the value of their parts. Frequently, the parts can
be stripped from a car at a chop shop and sold for at least twice as
much as the value of the vehicle on the used car market. Newer models
are also more difficult, but not impossible to steal thanks to
anti-theft technology incorporated by the manufacturers."
