Of course it's going to be cheaper.
If a truck has a lifetime of 20 years, that's 20 years' worth of paying a security guard for it.
You really think it could take 20 years' worth of human effort in labor and materials to make a truck more secure? The price of the truck itself in the first place doesn't even come close to that.
