.. So you could look at it like rolling the dice.
After all, it is Las Vegas -- you could get lucky.

If you're the kind of person who prefers to TAKE CHANCE OUT OF THE EQUATION, there is one group of Ford F-Series Pickups that have never been stolen:
those protected by a Ravelco antitheft device.

Car thieves have NEVER beaten the Ravelco anti-theft device.

Customer Ravelco antitheft system reviews AFTER a theft attempt.

"Our Ford F350 truck was stolen in January of 2005. We were very lucky because we got the truck back in excellent condition. I did research and made the decision to install a Ravelco kill switch in the truck. This morning we woke up and discovered that someone had attempted to steal our truck again in the middle of the night. The ignition was cracked and a screwdriver in its place. But the truck was still parked in the driveway! I can't thank you enough for a product that allows me to sleep at night knowing that my highly desirable vehicle is safe in my driveway! I have recommended your product to everyone I know and will continue to do so. We are living proof that it works! Thank you again!!"
- Janet C

"We took a family trip to Chuck E. Cheese Pizza in Mike's new F-250 truck and it was stolen. He picked it up on a Friday afternoon while I was out of town at a meeting in Houston. We took it out for the first time as a family on that Sunday to go to our nephew's birthday party. Mike parked it out by the street, under the sign, so everyone could see it. Five minutes after we had arrived Mike returned to the window to spy on his new truck and that is when he discovered that it had been stolen. It all seemed so surreal. One week later it was found on the other side of town running on the side of the road. Fortunately, it had not been damaged and was still in very good condition. I really believe that all things happen for a reason and although dramatic and costly, this experience inspired Mike to start a business of his own. After doing research on the Internet for security systems during the week that his truck had been stolen, he found a product out of Houston, Texas called the Ravelco. It is an anti theft device that is installed in your vehicle. Mike traveled to Houston to check out the company and after doing lots of study and investigation, decided that it was the perfect business distributorship for him to start in Tucson. His business got off to a slow start but is beginning to pick up now and he is very excited about its potential. "

"Ravelco, thank you so much for your product. Some bum tried to steal my 2008 F350 Super Duty Pick Up on Sunday night while we were at a Super Bowl Party that my friends were hosting. When we started to leave and walk out towards the street I knew something was wrong instantly because the driver's door was wide open, I am surprised that a car driving by didn't knock the door off. I say tried because they jimmied the door and broke the lock, they then proceeded to cut open the steering column and tried to start it. No DICE! The Ravelco saved my truck! These bums must have had nerves of steel because we parked right in front of the walk leading to the house. There were many other cars also parked on the street near my truck in this supposedly exclusive Houston neighborhood. Luckily, the Ford body shop said all they have to do is to replace the plastic door handle and the plastic around my steering column. They said that they keep the parts on hand because of so many Super Duty thefts in the Houston area. Once again thank you for your wonderful product."

"Dear Ravelco: You can do what you want with this letter and use it as you wish but I have to let you know just how great your Ravelco theft system actually is. This past March, we purchased a 2006 Ford Super Duty Diesel F-350 4X4 (cost more than our first home). We needed something fairly powerful to pull our travel trailer. We live in a fairly safe community but now being retired we travel all over the country sometimes into Canada and Mexico. Of course we stay at many overnight camper/trailer facilities. Now here's the good part . . . the first night we parked, we met some neighbors in the space next to us. They were admiring the seats in our truck (King Ranch Edition) and asked if we had an anti theft device to prevent our truck from being stolen? I spoke up and said, we have everything you can get on a vehicle plus the factory security system. I told them that our salesman said that was all we needed to protect our truck. Our new neighbors said what they thought they had on their truck was also fool proof until they lost everything including their travel trailer, which sadly was their home at the time. I followed them to their truck and they showed me what they had now installed to prevent that from ever happening again. Behold - our first introduction to the RAVELCO!  That night after thinking about what happened to them really started bothering me so the very next morning we asked where they had it installed and they said in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Being in Texas at the time we were not going to Cape Cod to get one installed. So I called the number for Ravelco on the window sticker off their truck and was told that we could get a Ravelco where we were in Texas! I had it installed at a place nearby in Brownsville. They were very nice and did a neat installation. The next day we left Brownsville and headed west towards El Paso. We stopped in Laredo, parked our truck and trailer right on a busy main street and walked over into Nuevo Laredo, Mexico to shop. Upon our return three hours later we found the door handle (plastic) pried open and the steering column wrecked. All the lights on the dash were on and there was a screw driver in the place where we would normally put the key.  BUT - MOST IMPORTANT OUR TRUCK & TRAILER WERE STILL THERE!!!!!! I showed the police officer the Ravelco plug, he recognized it - plugged it in - turned the screwdriver and started our vehicle. We were so happy that this little Ravelco Plug saved our truck, our trailer and all our possessions. They did steal an empty cooler and some sunglasses that were on our front seat! Even though your Ravelco product saved us from this ordeal, it is a shame that you can't feel comfortable having something nice in this world today, it makes you not even want to travel anymore. THANK YOU -THANK YOU-THANK YOU!"
- Rita D, St. Louis, Missouri

"Thanks for installing the RAVELCO anti-theft device on my 2005 F250 Super Duty about 4 months ago after it was stolen the first time and recovered in Edinburg, Texas in great shape except for the passenger door lock and the steering column being busted. I researched the web for a system to deter from this EVER happening again and came across the RAVELCO system and it worked just like Vinny said it would. On October 8th 2007, 4 pm, we were shopping at the Fountain Shopping Center in Stafford, TX for less than an hour and returned to my truck, noticed that my girlfriend opened the door and my left side blinker was on and I had not even touched the door opener and opening the door found the dash cover on the floor board and the steering column busted with the ignition on but the SORRY individual could NOT start the truck THANKS to your RAVELCO anti-theft device you installed on my truck. Again, they busted the passenger door lock. They didn't even steal a thing this time from inside of the truck, HAD NO TIME TO DO IT!!!!   I would SUGGEST THIS SYSTEM TO ANYONE over any GPS tracking devices or any high end alarms. FYI, I know they had at least a screw driver in their hands and possibly a gun or knife, SO DON'T confront the THIEF. Call police, it's not worth it! YOU CAN REPLACE THE BUSTED PARTS BUT NOT YOUR LIFE."
- O. Elizondo, Sugar Land, TX

"As soon as my stolen 2007 Ford F-350 was recovered, I had a Ravelco installed. The day after Christmas this year, I went to Baybrook Mall in Clear Lake. I came out and opened the door. As I reached in to install the plug, I noticed parts from my ignition lying on the floorboard. I looked, and sure enough thieves had tried to steal my truck, again. If I hadn’t had the Ravelco, I’m sure the truck would be gone. With the Ravelco, I’ll only be out a couple of hundred dollars instead of several thousand (I had just put on a lift kit and oversized tires & rims)!"
- Barry Williams, Houston, TX

Ravelco has protected 4 million vehicles and
prevented thefts for 30 years with 100% success.

 

... but don't take our word for it. See why POLICE OFFICERS, automotive professionals, the media & Honda owners who have tried it believe Ravelco is the best antitheft device, better than the best car alarm & best vehicle tracking device. (Here's a hint: they've never seen it defeated.) The Ravelco anti-theft device has been featured on ABC News, in GM High Tech Performance & Car and Driver Magazines, and many more media outlets. Below are links to video and articles.
