vehicle tracking

PostBy: coalnewbie On: Fri Dec 07, 2012 4:52 pm

My wife gets a little flakier with age and when one of us is driving it would be good for the other to see the vehicle location. So OBD tracker or ordinary tracker? Which is best for real time casual use for 2 old farts trying to locate the other?

If I gave her more than $20. I want to know where my money is. I ring fence all shopping malls. I've caught her out before, slinking off to buy bread or milk when she should be saving it for beer. Enough I say. Ever had that sinking feeling you are not going to get a sensible answer to your post. :sick:

It would be useful in northern Maine in the dead of winter. If a truck is stopped for more than 20 minutes you know where to direct the undertaker. Do you bury them up there yes? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA - I slay myself.

If she drove this Saturn to the store, you would probably be able to see where she is from your front porch. :funny: :angel:
