Default Vehicle security

In light of just what happened to Pete Simpson and the owners of the four H/O,I suggest we have a tread on Security.
Lets share ideas on what we have in place,without disclosing details to unwanted parties,and what additional measures we can employ to thwart the theft of our possessions.
Obviously a planned theft may result in the thieves successfully stealing your car or rig,but what can we do to slow them down. If they cant get it in 60 seconds,they may abandon it and move on.
Here is what I have.
On my 03 Yukon XL
Active Onstar costs $25.00 per month.
Vehicle is supposed to have a passive immobilizer,i will verify that it works.
Truck length club,I only use it when i am on towing trips.
Receiver pin is locked.

On the trailer:
All doors padlocked with same key.
Battery is inside trailer.
Coupler is locked when in storage
Fulton wheel lock.
(the best wheel lock I heard off was one called Brutus but I heard the company that made them folded).
Last time I hauled a car I left the keys in ignition,never again. Two cars have electrical bypass systems.

In storage all cars are kept in a locked, alaramed,sprinker equipped warehouse that is gated and has security patrol

Lets hear from others on security systems and preventative measures.
