If you steal a car and go joyriding, how much time will you get?

I have a loved one who went joyriding in which the keys were already in the vehicle he took how much time do you think Delaware would give him?

This depends on his criminal history, was anyone hurt and how much damage was done to other's property.

This depends on his criminal history, was anyone hurt and how much damage was done to other's property. Stealing a car is grand theft auto, and it's not a game. He will probably do some time but we are not sure how much.
