• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Alarm system for 2013 RT

Does anyone have any recommendation for the RT? The service technician says they really aren't recommended because of the nanny and the ignition system?

Another good question. Should I, or Shouldn't I.

My take: Alarm systems are a bit expensive. The :spyder2: is programmed to not start without the coded key present. That should provide enough deterrent for most. Some people cannot even start them with the key--as in, failure to press the mode button after boot up.

A determined thief is going to take your :ani29:--regardless.

Adequate full coverage insurance to cover you in the event of a theft is where I am at.

Sorry, but I do not have any recommendations for alarm systems--which was actually your question.

Thank you
 
I have a Scorpio i900. I had one on my 2010 RT for four years and I have had one on my 2014 for a year and a half. No Problems. I only use the perimeter and vibration sensors. I did not connect it to the ignition. I use it to keep from people messing with it or sitting on it.

Yes tampering and vandalism is what was mentioned to me. ..thank you I will look into it.
 
It's a choice...

depends on where you are, travel or stay...as far as theft I agree with AKSpyderman. But for a deturrent for the curious and photo op folks it works well. I use a pull over heat and rain cover to do that. There are systems out there but the installation can be tricky...:thumbup:
