Not that I know of. You do have to put in a new sim card and add minutes, I was able to get $10.00 worth for 100 texts. it lasts a while for me, maybe $10.00 a month at the very most. Basically it's a phone with a tracker in it

when do you get a text only when you request one?

My truck is so dang hard to cold start, I'm hoping that discourages them enough to move on.

so $10 for 100 text. how many times do you plan on pinging your truck to find it? im confused as to why you would need this many. i would only want 5 and only use it if my truck was MIA.

Well first my truck has a manual choke and most non car guys under 40 don't know how to use it and if it is below 60 out good luck starting it without the choke.

I also have an ignition kill switch on the dash, its in the open but originally I planned on 2 more for dummy switches then mislabeling them. I also run a batt cut off that is hidden between the core support and grill. You have to stick your arm up under the bumper and between those two to find it, It has a removable "key" so with out it there good luck.

I also used to run a chain to lock the hood down, it went through a hole in the core support and wrapped around the frame with a lock. But it was a pain to check oil etc and in case of emergency with the engine I didn't want to worry about having to unlock it.

No worries there. I saw a guy at a car show with a battery cut off switch mounted right at the battery post. Not many thieves will look under the hood to see whats wrong.
