Inovative anti-theft ideas?

There's your problem!........you'd never think of putting a webcam up to watch your wife while you're gone......You're obviously taking the wrong one with you on vacation. Take the tractor....leave the wife!

Hmmmmmmmmmm.

Patrick_g: Thanks for the details on how to build a tractor alarm. That will make it easier for me to enjoy vacation! Even if I don't take my tractor instead of my wife!

You feel vulnerable when you have to be in one of the retarded states.

Yep.. I -won't- live in a communist state... The more freedoms for the citizens the better.

Let me decode this for folks who may live in ignorance (due to geography not intelligence, mostly)

SHALL ISSUE means the state gov shall issue unless there is a reason not to do so such as felony, domestic violence, mental illness. In KALIFORNIA there are laws on the books to allow you to get a concealed carry weapon but it is dammed unlikely you can do so. Kalifornia is NOT a "shall issue" state. There you have to prove need and aren't likely to do so in todays political climate there. In shall issue state they SHALL ISSUE unless the state shows you to be disqualified for one of the limited number of reasons.

Many shall issue states offer reciprocity to states that offer it back. This means that you are legal to carry a concealed weapon in any state that recognizes your state's permit and vice versa. Nice to drive across great distances through enlightened FREE states and be able to protect yourself or others should it be required. You feel vulnerable when you have to be in one of the retarded states.

It is the old addage, if they want something they will figure a way to take it. Wondering what ideas people have come up with to keep their tractor and implements around when you don't have the luxury of a locking barn..

As I've said before, if your tractor and implements are more important than your dignity, paint the tractor and implements pink and put "My Little Pony" stickers all over. No one will steal your stuff.

My solution was to move to Meeker, CO. Cars are left running while parked all the time, most parked vehicles at folks homes have the keys in them. I have not locked my house in 6 years, and the keys are in my Bobcat and Ranger all the time. Although we have a Town Police Department and a County Sheriff, we are also a self-policing citizenry that watches out for one another.

...and we are a shall-issue state. The only thing that could be better is to have the Vermont carry rules.

The bad part of my job is the Fed's have decided that truck drivers don't need a gun to protect themselves. Guess they figure a tire tool is enough. Since I spend most of my time in a truck, working for a company based in N.J., who also feels that way, I don't have much of a chance, dispite the laws that are in my favor in my home state.
Good neighbors are the best thing to have, especially if they are retired, and shoot targets for a pasttime.
Anyone stealing my JD is nothing short of a fool! My dogs will activate the alarm (neighbor) and the thief will never see the bullet coming.

There are no Federal laws against carrying a gun in a commercial vehicle.

Great name for a heavily armed town!
