I am looking to install GuidePoint tracking device in my GT3. Mainly for the fencing and tracking features for the rogue valets.

Anyone have experience with GuidePoing. Any opinions versus LoJack?

Thanks.

Cellular data based GPS units make more sense to me than Lojack since you can see where your car is on your smartphone at any time. There are many gps units out there at a wide range of prices. Be advised though that these units are connected up hot all the time and will place a small drain on your battery. I have a late model chevy pickup with a gps unit in it (plugs into the OBD diagnostic port) and it will drain the battery if the truck in 2-3 weeks during the winter.
