This is getting silly IMHO
You don't need to bring a clunker. Hyperbole is when an participant in a discussion uses an extreme extrapolation as an example of getting their own point across.
An ORDINARY vehicle is not coveted. That stolen Jeep is eye-candy. Ya wanna know something? If it was painted PINK it would not have been touched. Ratones hyperventilate over MACHO. A 1947 Dodge Power wagon with candy apple paint, chrome and a winch would cause a ladrone's knees to wobble.
Living purely and totally amongst Mexicanos I have learned a lot. I keep my ears and eyes open. MACHO looking rigs are risky. So are sports cars especially if they are newer models. A standard pickup towing a 5th wheel is not a risk. But dually pickups are one step higher on the risk ladder. But not when they are towing a 5th wheel. I wrote standard. No chrome roll bars, 10 lights festooning it. No big fancy MACHO tires and aftermarket spoke wheels.
