the Invoxia GPS Tracker

An inexpensive option to locating a stolen truck

I get that stealing has been around for centuries, but am I alone in thinking it feels like crime is getting worse these days? When I’m just out running errands I don’t necessarily worry about my truck being stolen. Maybe somebody swiping loose sunglasses off the dash is a possibility if I forget to lock it, but you’d have to be brave (and extra stupid) to steal a truck in a Walmart parking lot in the middle of the day.

However, when my truck spends a little time unattended, I do worry about it getting swiped. I take extra precautions to keep it safe, but I’ve never considered investing in some type of a tracking system in case it was stolen over the fear of long-term contracts or prices I couldn’t justify.

However, after doing a little research the Invoxia GPS tracker appears to be a favorable solution to help locate your property if the worst does happen. It’s discreet and can hide just about anywhere and the Invoxia GPS tracker can be set to begin alerting you if your truck is moved from its set location. In addition, it will continue to alert you every 30 seconds or so, enabling you to track its location.

Invoxia has options, but for this review I went with the Cellular GPS Tracker that includes a one-year subscription for $129.

To be honest, I really like the price. It gives me a year to really try it out and see if it fits my needs. After my year is up I’ll be notified in the app as well as by email that it’s time to renew the subscription if I decide to, which is $39.90 a year or the price goes down if you opt for the several-year option.

I didn’t need my truck stolen to review this tracker, as there are plenty of ways to test it. I think I’m going to like it long-term. For the peace of mind it offers, I can see plenty of added value here in knowing if my truck is ever taken I have a way of tracking it so I can get it back.
