could someone get some type of GPS marker put on your vehicle so that you can track it wherever it may go? if so what system could you do this with and where can you get it?
thanks all

Dont ask why... But I was watching Hulk Hogans reality show one day and he had some tracking system he had is his SUV. He was tracking his daughter on her date or some shit.... it was real time on and his PC. If it was the real deal it looked pretty cool.

Anyone know what system?

voila!

as far as tracking your 240, i wouldnt waste money on it, unless you got some kinda $$$ 240...most 240 guys i know dont even put theft on their policy. its better just to use good judgement and invest in a closed garage or live in a better neighborhood or get another beater for daily drive.

just get a 2-way alarm, and do a ton of ad on's,like tilt sensor,motion sensor,back up sirens and a glass break sensor. ALso relocate your hood latch cable to somewhere safe

now what happends if somehow i break the driver door window, then cut your fancy 2 way alarm wires? guess what..... the car is right for the picking ! lol

i just said that to prove that an alarm isnt all that great.... the boomerang is great, it can track your car down once/if it gets stolen.

Boomerang sounds like a Canadian version of LoJack.

thats quite possible..... is it somesort of box that you hide in your car, and then if your car gets stolen , you just give them a call and they can track your car.

Until they unplug the box.

That's if they manage to not trip your glass breakage sensor when they break your glass, and if they manage to stay at it and spend a lot of time to find and cut your 2 way paging wires.

You should be in front of them shoving your Glock 19 in their face by the time they manage to find the 2 way paging wires.

I mean, come on, if you're gonna install the wires, at least install it right and hide them, instead of leaving all your wires exposed and sitting around for people to snip.

What are some good brands for 2-way alarms?

Btw, you can also put that club like lock thing on your clutch [I'm forgetting the name right now]. I'll search for it later.
