I just googled what tow away protection is.

It's far from a standard feature so it's likely rarely an issue. Also, no one would bat an eye at a car alarm going off on a car pulls by a tow truck. Hell, we all tune out car alarms all the time anyway.

This is why my "get rich quick" "chop-shop" plan is to buy old used Tow trucks and then just steal peoples cars!

Step 1: Acquire Tow Truck
Step 2: ??
Step3: Profit!

Most tow truck drivers do this legally anyway. They steal your car cuz a sign said it was ok, then drive it a mile away and charge you a ridiculous amount to get it back. They’re truly predatory scum.

They already do this.

My car was stolen in broad daylight by being loaded onto a flatbed tow truck, and they just drove off with the alarm blaring.
