Coming from small town Wyoming to visit my girlfriend in Seattle. She has a small place so I was wondering if anyone has advice on just leaving my crash pads in my car? Seems like a weird thing to steal but I’m very naive on the subject. Thanks!

I’d be more concerned about your catalytic converter. But the pads should be fine.

Realistically I would not leave any gear - or pretty much anything - in a car in any city or trailhead.

YGD. I mean, throw a shipping blanket or tarp over it and you'll be fine. Car thiefs in the city aren't looking for your fancy sofas, they're looking for small expensive stuff.

FTFY. That was true at one time. Now they'll smash the window of an unlocked, empty car, still looking for something/anything.

No not safe. Leave nothing if value in your car in plain site.  Shit will get stolen and either end up on craigs list or in someones tent as a mattress.

A summation of this thread and every other goddamned one just like it.

I’m 30 years old and just moved out of my parents.  I can’t really think for myself so it would be nice if you could tell me what to remove from my car.  I want to be a social influencer when I grow up but I’m looking for a safe place for my crash pads in the meantime.  I don’t have any meaningful skills to contribute but I don’t think I’m worth less than $200.00 an hour.  It can’t be more than 20 hours a week though, so that I can optimize my work-life balance, preferably from home.  
Also, I want to buy a van for my crash pads safety but I’m having hard time understanding anything about buildouts so if you can tell me what I should do, I’d be super psyched.  Also, I just pulled a pulley in my finger while vigorously masturbating and I’m having a hard time wiping my ass.  I can’t decide if I should use my left hand or my splinted fingers.  Anyone who has any experience in this matter, any tips would be greatly appreciated.  Are crash pads acceptable semen depositeries? 

OP I am just joking but a homeless man might do stuff to your crash pads that you wouldn't even want your car within miles of.
