I second Les' comment and throw in another consideration. In this mostly 
rural area, a there are a lot of husbands who ride around with firearms in 
their pickups, tractors and combine cabs.

An unfamiliar vehicle parked in the driveway for an hour or so could be 
seen as suspicious. Other than cheap advertising, that is one reason I have 
the license plates "pno2ner" and pno2nr" on my vehicles.

It pays to advertise.
