One more thing to remember.

If the system is plugged into the vehicle computer (which it sounds like), the company is closely monitoring your vehicle use beyond time, miles and speed. They are also watching how long you idle the engine, and etc.

I know this because my DS's car is so equipped. I can even stop his car from my cell phone if he is exceeding a geographic area limit, or a speed limit.

No, he cannot get away with the things I did.

This GPS is installed, but not really hooked up. I noticed that it did show where I was... well, at least it did until I tried to engage the 'parking' brake...

Now it doesn't show anything... whistle

But it's still in the way. Maybe I can just unplug it for now...
