One day my kids friend was over. I come home at 1AM. Two mins after I get home the kids father comes over. Of course, he asks where's the kids. Since I had just walked in mins before he got there I didn't have definitive answer. We live close so the kids coulda been at my house, his house or outside up to no good. So, anyway he takes out his IPhone goes into an app. and within a second he tells me the kids phone is located at --------. And rattles off my address. Thats pretty accurate instead of giving a location within so many feet. Turns out the kids were in my son's bedroom sleeping. Point is, if a smart cell phone is stashed in the car( with a charger hooked up) just during the time on the trip(say like your wife's phone) there would be no additional cost, it uses GPS as well as cell service. It has the reliability(and engineering) of a cell phone.Works inside, outside or where ever there is service. And you can track it yourself as well as authorities. And no additional equipment to buy(unless of course you buy a dedicated phone for this).

Just my thoughts. Does anybody see a flaw in this plan? If so please say so, I wouldn't my car missing and me having egg on my face.
