Your X Wife????After seeing several YouTube blips about gps trackers being installed on newer cars and trucks I thought I'd look under my dash on my ram and found a gps tracker . I've had issues with dead batteries on hunts from not starting the truck for several days and it explains it. But the dealership is saying there not installing them. So who is? It's definitely after the truck is built as it's tapped into the obd2 wires .
Aftermarket for sure -- manufacture of the swat3e is 179th day of 2019 -- which was after the truck was made and after it was sold at a dealer. My guess is prior owner installed it for some reason ( it's similar to a lojack device/subscription)It's a 18 ram mega cab possibility maybe . But I don't think so it's got a ton of add on stuff that fleet or rental stuff wouldn't usually . It's very well optioned and they usually are not.
New technology is allowing the car insurance companies to keep an eye on how you speed. YIKES!
There is a part of me that likes the idea of people that regularly break traffic laws paying more than me for insurance. I have to admit, having gotten multiple tickets and outrunning LE twice in my younger years, I now drive like a nun. I haven't had a speeding ticket in nearly 20 years and never been in an accident. There's something about being a first responder and cleaning up the carnage that makes me lose the desire to drive aggressively.According to my cousin who is an Allstate rep, virtually all auto insurance companies are moving in the direction of basing rates on digital info provided by your car. If you allow this monitoring, you can save or lose money depending upon how you drive. In addition to your milage, it will monitor if you exceed the speed limits, accelerate rapidly, slam on the brakes or do anything else that indicates that you are not driving like a nun.
Then I'm screwed!!! I drive my truck like I stole it . Don't use turn signals as once there on people usually just block you so you can't .According to my cousin who is an Allstate rep, virtually all auto insurance companies are moving in the direction of basing rates on digital info provided by your car.
