If you’re worried about your car getting stolen, you have good reason to be afraid.
Roughly 700,000 cars were stolen in the United States last year, according to an FBI estimate.
The total loss due to car thefts is around $4 billion a year, so you might want to keep an eye on those wheels.
The National Insurance Crime Bureau recently unveiled a list (appropriately titled Hot Wheels), which shows the top stolen cars by state. Here’s a hint: Honda is really popular.
Let’s take a look at what the Bureau found:
- Alabama—1997 Chevorlet Pickup (Full size)
