I believe that you can buy the GM OnStar FMV system to install on any vehicle. I think that it includes GPS tracking as well as certain alarm capabilities. A lot depends on if you have shore power available as well as some way to connect to wireless internet.
When my coach is stored at my house, it is hooked up to shore power and my in house wireless router is sufficient to cover my motor home. If I wanted to install the same system as used in my house, it could set off an alarm bell, capture video, and send me an email that something is going on.
I only use my residential alarm when we are gone and do not worry about alarming my RV although I do have permanent security cameras that record all activity around the RV and the house 24/7.

If your storing/parking it where it needs an alarm, I'd be looking for a new spot. We don't have an alarm on our home but have a yard sign and stickers on our doors and windows. Two years ago both of my neighbors were broken into but not us. Can only think it was my stickers. Now we have two large dogs as back up.
Buy good insuarne because a good theif will still get what they want.

I have heard an auto car alarm go off many times in parking lots an other gathering places. It seems no one including my self will even look up when one goes off...
I imagine the same will go for the RV ALARM. The camp ground will probably ask you to leave for disturbing other campers...
Maybe the noise will drive away the intruder or maybe not... We would hear auto alarms go off all the time when at a fireworks display on the 4th of July...
In the RV CASE perhaps this will happen when parked at a camp ground or Parking lot somewhere and no one around. Who is going to show up to help...
Just like having lights come on when the motion detectors detects movement. You will probably find a note left by the intruder saying "Thanks for the added lights - helped alot"
To me localized ALARMS may not be much help for the cost involved... Silent alarms would be the way I would go. The downside to this is the false alarms - be prepared to pay the POLICE for their services if they are involved...
Just some thoughts here.
