LoJack... don't think so!
Well, I stupidly agreed to get it installed on the car after my wife persuaded me... and guess what after I got it installed I realized that it's not covered in all the 50 states but 29... and from what I understand, don't know if it's covered entirely in those 29 states either!
Don't think it's worth probably...
Additionally, you're required to get it checked every two years for $99 and the warranty apparently lasts as long as the car's and after that any issues, you gotta get the device new!
I got the "early warning system", apparently it's supposed to end me an email/sms if the car is started and moving without a new keyfob (which I need to carry with me in addition to my car key!), rather you get the msg if the car doesn't have the keyfob in it.
I really wish I'd get a refund now, after knowing this!

If you have Mbrace you don't need LoJack. Besides if my cars stolen and beat to hell I don't want it back anyway. I want a new one.

well, the selling point for LoJack vs mbrace is that mbrace is a $280 annual subscription, which has no practical use (except for vehicle tracking) (concierge - does anyone use it at all these days?) vs LoJack which is a $680 one time investment.
But what they don't tell you is that it's not covered all over the US! that's something I'd expect at the least. Although for me it's covered for all my neighboring states, still it's something you'd want complete coverage..
