    Older cars tend to be popular targets. In addition to supplying in-demand parts, these older cars are:

    •Easier to steal. Car manufacturers in recent years have added many theft deterrents that older models don't have.
    •Not as likely to have after-market security devices, such as warning, tracking and disabling devices.

    Metropolitan areas with the highest vehicle theft rates

    1. Laredo, Texas
    2. Modesto, Calif.
    3. Bakersfield, Calif.
    4. Stockton, Calif.
    5. Fresno, Calif.
    6. Yakima, Wash.
    7. San Francisco/Oakland/Fremont, Calif.
    8. Visalia/Porterville, Calif.
