LoJack installation

How many of you have had LoJack installed?
How many of you have it with the early warning system?
I just had mine installed this morning and was offered an upgrade if I wanted to do the early warning sysytem but was not sure if I should or not.
Any and all comments are welcome as always, please!

Useless. If you have teleaid just pay the lifetime price of 1500. They can track your car, call emergency services within seconds, and much much more.

Funny how the dealer did not recommend Teleaid as he had the exact same comments as you above!!

From what I understand the teleaid uses a sat signal and might not help if it is put in a container to be sent overseas. The only advantage to Lojack is it is LF radio and should still transmit. Not sure what the early warning system is though. For the price I had lojack activated.

Most dealerships have discount coupons and lojack can be a cheap as $495. Mine was... JM .02

Same is true for Lowjack.
My salesman try to sell me on lowjack and even installed it. Since I didn't want it, I got it as a freebie.
It's worthless with teleaid, even with early warning function.
