    Maybe we can get ahold of one of the magazine companys and have them do a feature on the car and tell about the build and say the car was recently stolen. That'd get the word out

    The technology and hardware, plus system design and build are available now all over the web. All it takes is dollars!

  5. As much as I hate this, I need it. It may make a good tech thread.

    The RFID chips they put in dogs are very short-range (as in inches). The dog has a tag that says it has been chipped, and if it gets picked up by a shelter or animal control they can use a scanner on the chip and get your contact info to return the dog. It's not lo-jack. If a cop was close enough to read an RFID chip in your car, they could read the VIN number and be done with it.

    LoJack is an option, especially for expensive cars, although the thieves probably have some way around that too?

    Ya LoJack was what I had in mind ... The dog chip was an example .. If I had that kinda hot rod worth that kind of cash, couple bucks a month for LoJack isn't a big deal . Just like a cell phone

    It was just recently made a sticky.., this thread was bumped for almost a week before that happened, so that might be what your seeing;)
     
  24. Many people have "subscribed" to this thread and may not have noticed that it is a stuck at the top.

    Right, guys!:cool: Though the HAMB may not be perfect, IMO, it's pretty much like the USA the way it used to be: People sticking up for one another. :mad: From the bottom of my heart, I say, THANKS Ryan and Kevin, too, for helping keep this a priority.

    DAMN those thieves. And, yes, somebody knows something;), and it WILL come out.
