Why not just leave it by the road with a sign that says "Steal me"?

We have been testing a GPS system that can track your asset to 10 meters. Reports in every 6 hours or you can ping the unit for exact location.
We put them on trailers and mowers this summer with great results. We are now working with supplyers and trying to get a better price. The units should sell for 250.00 to 300.00 with all hardware and 1 year free locates after 1 year the locate fee is around 60.00. I will keep you up dated. Gary SB Sales

Gary, at 300 per unit and then fees following, if i were to put a unit on all my equipment, 22 pieces, that would be $6600? Units like that can never replace insurance so it will be an additional cost. Now i do understand insurance gives discounts but i wonder how long before the break even mark will be? Now due to proper storage and good luck i suppose i have never had anything stolen. I am just looking for the pros to systems like lojack.
