Early Response Lowjack
Hey guys I have a 2006 WW Evo RS and had the lowjack system install along with their early response system. If my car is moved lowjack will immediately call 5 phone numbers that I choose and tell me that my car has been moved without my presence in the car. I love it, although it costs $1,200. I think its a worthwhile investment in security for such a sought after car for theifs. Anyone eles have lowjack?

I don't have lo-jack but I have been thinking of getting a gps tracking system for the car. DEI and a few other companies make similar products. Lo-jack works great though from what I hear.

That is a GPS tracking system. The original LoJack is worthless old technology, this is how it should be and this type of product has been available for years and I would buy it from a reputable security company like Directed electronics than a sham of a company like LoJack.

what happen if they put your car in a STEEL container like those big rigs trailer??? or a STEEL warehouse? Correct me if im wrong, but i know lo-jack would be useless. and what about GPS, can they detect it from a Steel container??

Lojack is a complete waste of money!!!! I have 2 kill switches on my car(1 for everyday use and the second for when I will be away from my car longer) that do the job and cost less then $20 bucks! Sure someone could tow it, but I cant see spending $1200.

I think 1,200 is a worthwhile investment in knowing if your car is being stolen via driven away or towed, especially if you have early response you will know almost immediately when your car is moved and will have a better chance at recovering your car the earlier you notify the police. Thats why I bought it...

I have one, along with Viper 791XV alarm.
I paid $599 with early warning system, I felt it was good investment to have extra protection along with Viper alarm. If anyone is interested in Lojack, I would recommend it. But not for dealers full asking price.
