I have had security open the doors to my truck and toolbox lids and look in when I visit industrial facilities. They have done the same with rental cars.

Once they reached in and started moving stuff around. I objected and they stopped. I calmly stated that even though their policy might state they could do that, common courtesy and mutual respect dictate that they ask permission before thay handle my belongings.

I will not allow security guards to search my vehicles beyond looking whether I am carrying or not, for several reasons. I do not trust them. If they search me, they darn well better be searching everyone, and I do not agree with the way private companies as a rule do their business with regards to security and policy.

When traveling to other states and carrying my handguns, I often have them in my luggage in the rental when entering facilities. They are locked up unloaded. I may be breaking rules, but their rules are the problem, not me. IMHO, if any company/facility/agency is really concerned about security, they would be doing the TSA type screening of everyone. Anything else is just something made up to make granny happy that junior is protected at work. Ranks right up there with gun free zones.
