Criminals seem to have a thing for big vehicles. The Cadillac Escalade remains the car most likely to be stolen, according to new data from the Highway Loss Data Institute.

This is the fourth year in a row the Escalade has topped this list. The rankings for most stolen cars are based on auto insurance claims data from 2008 and 2009.

Or maybe its because an actual luxury vehicle is a bit harder to steal.

Exactly Veyron, a Tahoe isn't that hard to steal, and what is an Escalade? Exactly a re-badged tahoe. Same exact steering column and same exact anti'theft system. I bet the chop em up and sell the grills, headlights and fenders to tahoe and Chevy pickup owners to turn them into Escalades.

There are lies, then there are damn lies, and then we have statistics. These results are skewed to make American vehicles the "most stolen". No matter how you slice it, the most stolen vehicle in America is a Honda Accord (has been that way for perhaps 25 years) and Hondas in general are the most likely to be stolen in the world. Period.
