They don't jack them up. They throw a concrete blocks under the axles. Let the air out of the tires, and they are gone in less then 5 minutes. If it takes them longer then 5 minutes. They took a beer break. :box:

I've got McGard locks on mine as well just to keep my rims and tires safer than with nothing on there.

Maybe it depends on where you live, but there is no way in hell I would worry about that crap where I live (thankfully). I rarely even lock my truck, although sometimes do take the keys out (mainly to prevent locking myself out accidentally).

I have Gorilla locks on mine just because I think they are a better lug nut than factory. And Walmart cross-threaded a couple factory lug nuts. Had to change out 1 stud because of it.
