Does anyone use or know of a gps tracker I can hardwire in the Charger that will text/email/page you when the car's on the move AND that does not require a monthly fee?  I don't want lo-jack as most police cars here don't support it. 

Ideally I'd like a system that will warn me if my car's on the move and will let me go online and see where it is.  I can call the police myself.

This car's gonna have more electronics in it than the space shuttle when I'm done with it....

Awesome!  didn't think it could be that easy, which is a welcome change!

All the power add ons are real fun but the tracker is no doubt the most important mod to do.  I don't want to stroll to the garage one morning to find it gone but knowing that I can track it is one heck of a relief, even if all that turns up is a shell.

Well, nobody can steal mine without moving junk and inoperable vehicles out of the way first. Have you tried that approach? :P

Hey I even though about putting a steel eyelet in the concrete floor and hooking a chain to the rear axle, but knowing me and my daze in the early morning I'd probably forget to disconnect it and drive out, waking up the neighbors.

Anybody with any sense at least.  I'd feel better at least if I knew my pride and joy was safe while I was away.
