For $188 I think I may have to look into getting one...
You would have to probably call and send a signal before someone could locate it. I really don't know how that all works though. But I'm sure you would have to speak to someone and not go to your computer for a map kinda thing.
I have used it a few times when I locked my keys in the truck. I just call up and it takes about 3-4minutes and the command goes through.


Shatter proof windows? I figured you meant a tint layer would make them shatter proof. Where did you get shatter proof windows??? Sounds like it would be a custom make and very expensive. I do know that the higher model BMW and Mercedes have bullet proof glass manufacturers for higher profile people, but shatter proof, i've never heard of???

last night 930 pm.

crooks can't drive 6sp manuals, my fault for running back into my house and leaving my truck running with the parking brake on, come back 15 to secs later and this white kid, 16 or 17 years of age, arround 190 pounds 6 feet tall, is trying to resart my truck, He stalled it out in my drive way.

I open my door, grab him by the neck with booth of my hands and threw and threw him hard onto my drive way.

booth my kness were on the back of his head when the cops showed up, whats odd is I do not recall calling the cops, ( I did call on my cell phone )

After the kid is hand cuffed, I got the speal that I should know better than to leave my truck running, Got the impression the cop was more concerned abought how I handeled the kid than fact this kid is trying to drive off in my truck.

At this point I'm pissed, kinda on the verge of just acting and not being rational, filling out the paper work calmed me down, cop would not give me the kids name or adress, But made it known to me, I was being ran threw CPIC.

Once the cops vacated my property, my night got a hell of lot better ( I got laid !!!!! )

It's just a film. It's not super expensive either.

My buddy's white 2001 1500 Ram Sport 4x4 was stolen in Toronto today.
Sweet lookin ride too! He went there to do some xmas shopping for his wife and kids and got a chance to see a Leafs game.
He got back to where his truck was parked only to find it gone.
F$%^in losers! WTF is wrong with people?

Keep your 100lb plus dog in truck, provided they not in heat or freezing temps, guaranteed the vehicle is safe. Electronics can fail but the dog won't.
