$150? try $400 and $600? Try $1000 I understand you don't think it's worth it. But I don't care if the safe is half the price as the gun I'd rather it be secure if I can't take it some where then some dirt bag stealing than robbing you with it.

I think it would be a worthwhile investment. You will end up putting other stuff in there, just like a safe in your home. You buy it to store a gun or two and you end up putting jewelry, documents, etc in the thing and fill it up before you know it. And I think most people look at a gun as more than a $550 replaceable piece of property. I would feel somewhat responsible if I left my gun in my car and it were stolen and used to hurt someone. Obviously it's not your fault because they could've got a gun from anywhere, but it's more the principle and a responsible gun owner.

I looked at this product quite some time ago, but decided to not make a purchase due to the blocked USB and blocked 12-volt power port problem, which the new unit has solved. So, I have decided to make one more upgrade to my Tahoe. :uhoh2:

How would anyone lean on the key vs. combination lock? My Tuffy Tactical Gear Security Drawer has both options on it, and right now, my preference would lean toward key usage over the combination lock. Opinions, please. I'm ready to place the order.

What the heck. I'll go with my own opinion on the key vs. combination lock situation. :D

I ordered the updated Console Vault from Mobile Security Plus and went with the Abloy High Security Lock option for an extra $45.00. I'll post a review on the product after I receive it and install it.

The only reason I'm leaning towards the combo lock is that if I need to get into the console while operating the vehicle I'd have to take my key out of the ignition to access the key for the console. Unless you plan on keeping yours elsewhere, then not an issue lol.

Of course, while you're trying to enter the combo numbers while driving, you'll steer toward the right of the road, and when you realize you're going off the road over a cliff, you'll jerk the steering wheel to the left so hard the vehicle overturns and while rolling, an 18-wheeler squishes you.

My one fear with this product is that if some thief did break in and discovered this safe, I would think he'd destroy the console to try and get in it because it would obviously be holding something of value. Kinda like when you have a convertible, it's often better to leave it open than to risk someone slashing the roof to get in and causing a pile more damage than whatever you were trying to hide/protect.

Most thieves are gone in seconds. So if it slows the thief down by sticking around a little longer, the chances of the thief being terminated are greatly increased. At least in Texas, anyway. :evillol:
