Those type of attacks (CAN injections) are very OEM specific, and come from deep insider knowledge, not something you fuck around and find out. I’m assuming you’re referring to Toyota, but anyways please give direct reference to the attack you’re referring to.

Keep in mind any need for expensive equipment is already a deterrent for many.

We have a phrase for that, "security by obscurity" https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Security_through_obscurity

Probably why great grandparent used that phrase. ;)

1-4k for the tools that they then amortize across many cars stolen and stripped or shipped overseas.

Idk what the pattern is where you are, but the majority of stolen cars where I am are not sold or stripped or anything like that. They're used for N days and then ditched somewhere. Used either for joyriding, living in, crash&grab, or whatever.

One of my old neighbors had their same car stolen like 2-3 times, always ditched and found after some number of days missing.
