> Car GPS trackers are expensive, hard to install, poorly designed and just plain bad. I don't know about US market, by in my country an anti-theft GPS trackers sold for about $100 (and about $50 for installation). Not a lot compare to a vehicle cost. Also your need a SIM card (to send/receive SMS by tracker). Even in the US it is not expensive (e. g. T-Mobile for $3/month).
