Each time a new electronic system is mfg. the bad guys can disable it as soon as it hits the shelves. Bad guy electronic guru's earn a living doing this. If your worried about parking it long term, disable the truck yourself by pulling the coil wire or disabling the starter. If they really want it they will flatbed it.

Dogs are the best alarm at home or on the road. Once took my truck to get the oil changed. Left the dog in the backseat. The guy sat in the truck, started it up and about FLEW out of the window when he saw my dog. Luckily it wasn't in D. Alarms slow criminals down maybe a half second. Spend your money on better insurance and keep your belongings out of the truck.

They have two types. One has a better key system. You can see it on the steering wheel from outside. Since it is visible and crooks are basically lazy, chances are they will just go to the next vehicle. Another thing you could do is put a switch in the ignition line. I ran mine as concealed as possible and the switch under the drivers seat. 2012 Jay Flight 19RD TT/W thermal package R19 walls, R22 roof, R24 floor 2008 F-250 Ford FX4 6.8L V10/4.10 rear axle Curt class V hitch Reese Trunion WD with dual cam AC6CV/7 ex-W8RUR since 1954 Bigfootchevy • View posts Bancroft, Ontario, Canada Senior Member Joined: 07/04/2010 View Profile Good Sam RV Club Member Offline Posted: 02/04/12 05:46pm Link  |  Quote  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator I was hoping you where asking about a burglar alarm for the Truck Camper.

Oh and my truck just has a factory alarm. All they do is make noise anyway, which everyone ignores. They are usually easy to disable anyway. 2006 F150 SuperCrew FX4 - Bilsteins, Hellwig sway bar, Firestone air bags, BFG KM2s, 4.56 gears, F&R lockers, Torklifts w/ Fastguns 2011 Travel Lite 700 usmohls2@yahoo.com • View posts CA Senior Member Joined: 04/21/2006 View Profile Offline Posted: 02/04/12 08:31pm Link  |  Quote  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator Pit bull with aids!!!!!! nycsteve • View posts NY Senior Member Joined: 01/26/2008 View Profile Good Sam RV Club Member Offline Posted: 02/05/12 04:15am Link  |  Quote  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator I have the factory alarm along with a Viper 2way remote alarm, with a 1 mile range. If the viper is tripped it will activate the remote in my pocket, good if Im in a store with the truck in the parking lot. Gives me a chance to correct the deviant citizens thievery. Also the camper door is wired to the Viper. Makes me feel a little better when on vacation, I have lots of goodies in the camper/truck , camaras , laptop etc. Also a LoJac, and theres always the chipped ignition key. kemo 1 • View posts ontario canada Senior Member Joined: 12/11/2005 View Profile Good Sam RV Club Member Offline Posted: 02/05/12 04:29am Link  |  Quote  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator I also have a Viper installed with a starter immobilizer. Had Best Buy install it. I normally do not deal with Best Buy, I have black balled them.
