Locked, Sure it is a pain to go get the keys if you need something out of it, But even if it is in a garage, Why make it easier if someone breaks into your home, by way of the garage, as most garages are part of the home.
It being unlocked might not allow them to take it, but take what is in it. I doubt the factory alarm does anything when unlocked, so jacking it up to take off with your $$ wheels and tires, without it going off, could also be a reason against not leaving it unlocked. I'm assuming here as I don't know for sure if the alarm will go off if it is unlocked but key is not around vehicle, after a set time.
I've had my home and vehicles broken into and in the case of the car stolen, So I do everything I can to make it not worth it to a thief as it take too long to steal it. If it is a pro, it won't matter, you were targeted and they have the tools on them to take what they are after, but most home break ins are not pro's. But the meth head or what have you, will gladly take the fob off the counter or draw and drive away in your toy, and wreck it, just for fun. PULL THE FUEL PUMP RELAY.
