    Yes if they can track a 500.00 chainsaw they should be able to track a 200,000.00 truck!

    That's all wonderful but too late. Also, I would think that the dealer salesperson would tell me about this tracking systems, but one thing I learn from this truck dealers is, no one knows anything about anything. I never had the time to even star researching this gps devices, my truck got stolen faster than I could comprehend what happen, I only had it two weeks, and does two weeks I spent getting this truck ready for work. This was just one bad thing after another, I don't think anyone is ever prepared for this type of events.
     
    Big Don Thanks this.

    With these newer trucks there is probably a fuse somewhere that you could pull to disable the truck. They might not want to spend the time trying to figure it out and move on.

    there is a very simple fix to disable a truck. all it takes is some wire and a well hidden toggle switch. but a little late now.
     
    rachi and Jackal123 Thank this.
