chevygal Posted February 26, 2005 Report Share Posted February 26, 2005 Ok guys, what vehicle alarm systems do you recommend? I don't care about price, I just want something that will protect my SS. I'd like something that can notify me on a keychain beeper or something like that, if someone is even touching my SS. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have a Code Alarm with a remote starter on one of my other cars. I'm not sure if they make any remotes with the display. Never had any problems with Code though, then again, I never drive the car either... so who knows. I wish I could be of more help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexaSS Posted February 26, 2005 Report Share Posted February 26, 2005 i have the Code Alarm remote start on my SS. Alarm works pretty well, a little too sensitive actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperDave Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 I don't use an alarm. I use practical common sense. I don't leave my truck unlocked. I park in well lit areas, and don't go to shady looking places. I haven't had any close encounters with truck theives to date... knock on wood! I really don't leave it parked anywhere but my garage for long periods of time. I know this isn't particularly helpful to this post topic, but it is a possibility to consider. I keep really close tabs on my truck and it's worked so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSplaytoy Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 I have the Clifford G5 Avantguard. Has tilt, omni, motion, and noise sensors. Plus, Blackjack which makes you put in a code to drive your car. No problems yet, just took the whole day to put in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevygal Posted February 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 The city I work in isn't the nicest place and I have to park on the street, sometimes two or three blocks away from my office, so my truck is out of view. I know it has the base alarm but that's nothing to a car theif that really wants to steal the truck. I have been taking the bus to work since I bought it rather than have to sit and worry all day that someone is messing with it. I know Onstar has the vehicle tracking but if they break the antenna, then it's useless. I was thinking of lojack but as I said, I really want something with a key chain or pager that can let me know if I'm say in a restaurant or somewhere that I can't see my truck.

They threw a brick through the drivers side window, took my wallet with 200.00 plus dollars in it, and a pair of Nikon sunglasses, and a cordless drill-driver I had just put in the truck. They broke in while I was running our printing press at work less than 25 feet from where I parked the truck. I never heard a thing. Only time I was broken into. They did almost 1500.00 damage to the truck, and got about 500.00 worth of stuff. Then they responed to an award ad I put in our paper. I got my wallet back minus the cash, But the cops couldn't nail 'em for it. Go figure! So I haven't been all lucky! I'm just a lot more aware of my surroundings now! See ya...
