Default OT but i think you R guys could use this

right now goodguys are having a sale on gps tracking device.
i got mine , through a friend for $48 normal price $170


you can locate it anytime through the internet (www.wherify.com)

hint, hide this somewhere in the car, then when you notice your car is missing, just log on. you can locate the location from there.

just make sure you could still get to it, cause you have to charge the battery evry now and then.
i would tell you where i put mine but that would defeat the purpose i just got it so i still have not signed up, will let you know how much the monthly soon as i signed up.

edit, i have to call in the morning to activae, but my friend said its about $20/month. i think its worthed,

Cool, yea let me know the charges, im sure there is an activation fee too. I want to get one of these whenever i do get my r. I think $20 is reasonable enough. You can track it yourself, instead of lojak crap which i have yet to see work, which i like.

Who in their right mind would let their kids out of sight and need to locate them via GPS?

You gotta charge it eh? I wonder how long the battery lasts. I can see some owners forgetting to charge it up and fate takes their ITR.

its got its own battery, so if you find a way to hard wire it to the car, and they cut the batter of the car, then it would stay on, unti it own battery dies.
