Out here in Ohio, I see people leaving their cars running while they go shopping, just because they want the A/C to still be on when they come back out. You could probably grab one of those and have a solid half hour before it even gets put in the system as stolen. If they actually knew how to hotwire a car, they'd be in even better shape, able to grab one from a garage at night, and have a whole lot of hours of free riding time before anyone found it was gone.
