We weren't surprised Cadillac's Escalade came in first (EXT) and third among vehicles most likely to be stolen, or that the Nissan Maxima came in second. What made us spit-take our decaf was the Dodge Stratus/Chrysler Sebring's showing in fourth place. Don't get us wrong, the Stratus isn't a completely terrible car, and some people are devoted fans. One could even argue the Stratus has Nascar cred, though the racing version shares nothing but a certain half-jellybean shape with the showroom model. But on the most-stolen list? Maybe if you included late rental returns we'd believe it.
