Dang, I've heard of people using their kids to break into houses but cars too? Sad day we live in. That is one reason why I keep an extra cover over the things I keep in the backseat. Also, the CDs I do have in my truck are all copies or custom CDs I've made from music I ripped from my own CD collection.
As to the earlier comment about the nerf/tube steps, that is why I kept mine. I was going to sell them, but they work out great for stopping most doors. I just wish they stuck out about and inch and a half further so they could stop truck doors too. Man, I hate having to park next to other trucks or other vehicles for that matter. I wouldn't mind having a slightly smaller, more manueverable vehicle.
As for debadging, I can agree with pistolpete's comment about making the truck look generic. My Tundra has been debadged, and when parked next to a Ford or Chevy, it blends in real well now. Don't have to worry about someone dinging or scratching me because they hate foreign pickups.
