Top 10 Most Stolen Used Vehicles for 2010

Here's something to keep in mind when used car shopping: the most stolen vehicles in 2010 were all used cars.
That should make some of you say, "Well, duh. Brand new cars are only stolen off new car dealer lots. Otherwise all stolen vehicles are used cars."
I know but what's interesting about the report on most stolen vehicles in 2010 is how used some of these vehicles are. The youngest on the list of most stolen vehicles is seven years old. The oldest is 20 years old.
Without further ado, here is the list of the most stolen vehicles for 2010:

1. 1994 Honda Accord
2. 1995 Honda Civic
3. 1991 Toyota Camry
4. 1999 Chevrolet Pickup (Full Size)
5. 1997 Ford F150 Series/Pickup
6. 2004 Dodge Ram
7. 2000 Dodge Caravan
8. 1994 Acura Integra
9. 2002 Ford Explorer
10. 1999 Ford Taurus

This is the first time since 2002 that domestics dominate the list. For those who track such things, three of the vehicles are pickups, five are sedans, one is a minivan and one is an SUV. Surprised the figure isn't higher on SUVs seeing as gas prices were lower in 2010.
Oolder used cars are popular with thieves for their parts, which is why they get chopped up and not taken for joy rides. They're also easier to steal because modern cars have more devices to defeat thieves but no used car is truly invincible, especially when being stolen for parts.
The NCIB has lots of information about stolen vehicles. Head on over to its website if you are curious.
