Nope, nope, nope. Speaking as a former driver for Postnord, the containers from which the thieves took pricey stuff, transport regular parcels - some of which contain electronic goods and such. Really expensive things that are insured as certified mail, are in containers that are closed on top and sealed. But most…
Not hard. I drive different cars, and only remember with absolute certanity where the work van filler cap is. Until the buy another model, that is.
