Question GPS TRACKER

Anyone installed a GPS Tracker in their rig instead of LoJack? Looking for a low cost alternative. Also do not want to pay monthly fees. I only need it in case of recovery if my rig gets stolen.

They can track it with the Onstar in your Hummer. A friend had his Onstar equipped Corvette stolen and Onstar located it for the police within the hour.

Onstar can not track your rig once the service is turned off.

I think if stolen you can still get onstar to track your rig even if the service isnt turned on. They can simply activate it, im sure they will charge you a fee.

My problem with Onstar is that the Thieves will know about it. What is to stop them busting off the Antenna or cutting the wires? I like the idea of a GPS Tracker so I can call the cops or I can turn up with my good friends Smith & Wesson! LoJack is $1,500.00 and limited to Cops having a Locator. These Teen Trackers seem like a good cost effective option. A lot of companies are doing them. Work on Cell phone and GPS signals. Don't know which one to pick. Some have monthly fees, some don't.
