replacing your vehicle is cheaper than your legal defense, even if you get off. not worth the headache. just stay inside and call the cops.

This is, unfortunately, the pragmatic answer that is probably most correct. Even if you're justified, you're going to pay. Don't shoot unless you have to. Even if you believe it to be the correct thing to do and can convince a jury that you're correct, it's going to cost you everything you've spent a life working for to defend yourself from that thief's family. Even then, you might lose the civil case and have to pay them off every paycheck for the rest of your life.
God, I hate a thief. Hammurabi got some things right.
