Roughly 700,000 cars were stolen in the United States last year, according to an FBI estimate.

The total loss due to car thefts is around $4 billion a year, so you might want to keep an eye on those wheels.

The National Insurance Crime Bureau recently unveiled a list (appropriately titled Hot Wheels), which shows the top stolen cars by state. Here’s a hint: Honda is really popular.

Let’s take a look at what the Bureau found:

  • Alabama—1997 Chevorlet Pickup (Full size)
  • Florida—2006 Ford Pickup (Full size)
  • Georgia—1996 Honda Accord
  • Kentucky—1999 Chevorlet Pickup (Full size)
  • Maryland—2000 Dodge Caravan
  • New Jersey—1996 Honda Accord
  • New York—1998 Honda Civic
  • Tennessee—1994 Chevorlet Pickup (Full size)
