  They originally offered concierge service and needed to know your location in order to do so. I visited the call center once and they had people calling in to ask where the nearest gas station was, where the cracker barrel was, etc. This was well before Google maps and turn by turn directions... So it was sort of a cancer, but it was more of a symbiotic relationship

    >So it was sort of a cancer, but it was more of a symbiotic relationship That was the paid service. If you didn't pay, you were still tracked and your motor could still be shut down. So if you paid, you got tracking++. If you didn't pay, you just got tracking.
