Default GPS / GSM Tracking...

Hey everyone,

I recently decided to reduce my automobile insurance coverage, and get a tracking device to use in the event my car is stolen. I've checked around on ebay, and google, and I was wondering if anyone out there has had any experience with these devices, or knows anyone who has? This way if my car gets stolen I can simply get it back, rather than getting screwed by my insurance company with a 8 or 10 thousand dollar claim check.

My biggest question is how often most of these devices refresh themselves updating the cars position.

Any input is welcome, thanks!

Thanks for moving this to the appropriate section! (I did look first, honest!)

Thanks, I checked 'em out, but couldn't find any pricing. I'll probably call that 800 number and see what's up. It definitely sounds like exactly what I'm looking for though. Could you tell me how much you pay monthly for the service, and how much the equipment costs? Thanks!
