Okay, so I've been paranoid about car theft ever since my neighbor's Kia got stolen in broad daylight. Enter this beast of a steering wheel lock - and let me tell you, it's been a game changer!

The installation is stupid easy - just pull to adjust and it clicks into place. No fumbling with keys to lock it (though you do need the key to remove it). The adjustable fork fits my chunky SUV steering wheel perfectly, unlike some other locks I've tried.

Bonus feature I didn't expect to love: the emergency window breaker. Sure hope I never need it, but knowing it's there gives me peace of mind. Though fair warning - that screw-on tip does tend to fall off if you're not careful.

After two months of daily use (yes, I actually use it every time like the paranoid person I am), the mechanism still works smoothly. The metal does get crazy hot in direct sunlight though - learned that the hard way when I grabbed it bare-handed after work.

Only real complaint? The keys are ridiculously fat. Stretched out my keyring something fierce trying to add them. Now they live in my glove compartment instead.

Bottom line: For the price, this thing delivers serious theft deterrent value plus emergency functionality. My car's still where I left it every morning, and that's worth every penny.
