I can only imagine its not the most well lit street or you're on a very quiet street so not much traffic.

If they have cased the area they know your neighbors are not up at a certain time say after 2am or so... safe bet most people are asleep. In a neighborhood probably with zero traffic so no one is going to know until its too late. The only deterrent there would be an alarm to wake someone up...other than that get a place with a garage....if it is out in the open its just time and opportunity waiting to happen.

I'm guessing it's a team of douchbags...with 1 maybe serving as a lookout/driver. They'd likely have a truck/van that's kept running on the street and it's large enough to load the wheels.

Maybe you NY guys should plan your own sting operation. Park your sport packaged Z in prime theft conditions and just wait for the thieves. This is the only proactive method of reducing the theft. Cops don't care and there is no serial numbers. Insurance companies end up with a profit in the long run as our rates continue to climb.
