Tequila,
I like your ideas. Using the Spot with some sort of shut down device will help to find the vehicle whether law enforcement helps or not. Hopefully they won't have time to get to their hideout. I sent an email to Spot but got no response. I asked about pricing. It says online that it is as low as $100 a year but I wonder where it goes from there? Seems like something that could work. Could be useful for other things too - using the Lat Lon numbers from the Spot as a locator to tell others places we have been. So do you know the pricing structure from Spot? And what kind of shutdown device did you get? Where? How much? We used to set up trucks with a valve in the fuel line you could easily manually turn before getting out of the truck (under the seat)- very simple basic device. What else is out there?
