Most all truck sales and banks are putting GPS trackers on the trucks so they can find them why not tell the driver/owner it is there if ther intentions are purely for non payers. Under federal law they have to tell you that there is a tracker on the truck,otherwise there are doing it illegally and that is why Lone Mountain and other companys won't answer the posts on here, why are they so quiet about it.
Are truck leasing companies allowed to track their vehicles with GPS?

[h=2]Eavesdropping, Trespassing and the Fourth Amendment[/h]
- Shouldn't tracking someone's every move be against the law? The Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution prohibits unreasonable search and seizure without probable cause and a warrant. This argument is used in case law to argue against the use of surveillance devices.
Though wiretapping and video surveillance have produced extensive federal case law, GPS tracking is fairly new to the federal courts. Case precedence dictates surveillance is allowed as long as it doesn't involve physical trespass and is preceded by probable cause and, in most cases, a warrant.

4th amendment doesn't count because it's not your truck until you pay for it, the owner of the truck has every legal right to track THEIR PROPERTY.DEMO Thanks this. -
The registered owner when the lease or sell you the truck or finance the truck must inform you that there is a GPS tracker on the truck either in your lease agreement or you sales agreement please show me where it is on your agreement because it is a clear violation of the 4th amendment not telling the leasee or owner its on the truck my brother is a federal agent and knows the law inside out

Have you or do you, plan on leasing from Lone Mountain? I don't understand why this upsets you so much to post on a thread that was inactive for awhile..... Did you have a bad experience? -

I would love to see the court case saying a person or company is not allowed to track their property. I remember this argument regarding tracking kids via cell phones and vehicle tracking devices. A lot of huffing and puffing but that was it.
