I know San Jose has a bunch of Lojack recovery scanners in the SJPD vehicles. Had one in our personal car in Massachusetts in the late 80's. Back then the police were huge fans as it helped cripple car theft rings.

Then think of it as dating a new person that you're super-excited about... and you try to be all suave until that first time that you trip and fall, or spill a drink on him. It kind of changes things... but then you can let your hair down and just relax and stop trying to be impressive.

yeah, like at first you pretend to be almost a perfect human that doesn't even go to the bathroom - but then eventually, they have to realize that you do indeed go to the bathroom - then it's blowing your nose in front of them, then it's no makeup or dirty hair or morning breath, then it's picking your nose, then it's farting in bed and before you know it, you can just be yourself! no more new car smell!

Exactly... I'm glad someone understands.

loJack

The car will be parked in the same carport where our Saturn was stolen from(it was found after three weeks and returned(found by police) .Local police when asked about Lojack give a little eyeroll. The price would be $695 for basic and Early Warning LoJack ($995), which will actually call you, email you or
text you when someone is moving the car without your permission.Meh I am still undecided
thank you for your replies

Evening All

Here is what I do, I could track my car in real time Evilution - Smart Car Encyclopaedia

Yet there is a sign up fee to track a cell in the US, still cheaper than LoJack

Just a thought

Gee, I better read my documents. I have never had one; wouldn't begin to know what to do if my princess went missing on me!
