Why must the cars be stealable in first place? Well if they are stealable then why can't we have a chance to ask merc sit in that car and shoot anyone who tries to touch it. There's no way that anyone manages somehow sneak in the car, hotwire the engine and drive away while this merc is sitting inside the car and preventing everyone trying it.

And that's not it, if this merc was shot then we should also be able to tie the car in a pole with heavy chain. Or attach a tire lock. A strong driver could even remove the tires and carry them with him while he's not around his car.

To make it even more secure why don't players drive their cars somewhere close to the city, camoflague it and walk to the town?

I agree that cars should be stealable but right now they are not stealable but free to "loot" for anyone that comes along. If you park your car in NCR then every second bluestuit will just try his luck with lockpick and if they are not around some thief with 150+ skill will do the job instead. So cars are very poorly protected right now and thats the main problem why people don't use them.

You did not get it. When the thief fail to lockpick the car THEN the guards will yell at him + flag him. And even when he succeed he has to guess a number from 0 to 9 (lets say 1st digit to your digital lock) to successfully get away with the car. Maybe there could be some small help such as coloring 2-3 digits (which are 100% not the right ones to open the car) in red so thief will be guessing not from 10 digits but only from 7-8. And I think that 20-30% stealing chance at successful lockpick try is just enough to keep cars "steal-able" but give people some chance how to actually protect them.


You missed the point, there are no guards.

Have a car is a status symbol , no other utility , only the sake of make see at other your success and the quantity of caps you may thrown away from the window.
I hope the price will raise up to 100k. ; )

Actually cars can't be valuable in game with the actual lockpick skill. One of those two has to be removed, and this is what is done already : Players don't use cars, but they use lockpick.
