tomtom is another brand of GPS devices. Kinda like Garmin.

I have a couple of motion activated Scarecrows that I use to keep the neighbors dogs off my lawn. Works well on humans too.

Have the dogs with attitudes and the motion lights.........they leave the doors open so not to make any noise. Going to have an alarm before the weekend.

Get an Android phone. They have a built in GPS and since it's your phone you will take it inside every night. The android phones are very nice. You can have a calendar, where you put addresses on the appointment and when you need to pull up the address you can just pull it up in the calendar, click on it and choose navigate and then it'll be telling you how to get to the address.

Tomtom is a GPS. I also take mine out at night. My issue is I leave the mount (suction cup) on the windshield and I worry that I am still advertising and that may invite a broken window. My dogs are a great alarm but I always notice strange activity on the streets at night. I am in the F section. From what I see this is an area that has less than average police activity, which is good. Keep the faith Mike. I am sure its difficult to stay patient.

Maybe you could sell the stuff? Tom Tom's are the norm these days, I'm sure someone will be interested who has one to fit your accessory parts. I have to ask though, and I'm not trying to be a brat, but why after 3 being stolen are you deciding to take things out of ur vehicle at night? You coulda saved soem $$$ doing this from the beginning... please don't get mad at me, I'm just stating obvious. Was your vehicle locked?

Mike fixes appliances, and probably has a large amount of tools and supplies, making it pretty inconvenient to have to take it out every night. Of course, why should anyone have to even lock their doors on their own property? They need to start opening a can of woop-*** on these punks.

I have a fancy phone but using the gps on it is questionable......Tom Tom is great. My lock was broken........now it fixed. The gps was pretty beat up and didn't if care I if it broke...by stealinbg my stuff is not good...this is the first time they took appliance parts from the truck. I have a broken TOmtom and a VERY LOUD home made alarm system. Its going to get interesting around here some night.
I did buy myself a man-pruse and the electronics come indoors now.

Mike, i am sooo sorry this happened to you. You are a hard working honest man!! It is a shame that we have such low life people in this town. I hope they get caught. (by you) Thanks for helping me with my appliances and giving such a fair price all the time. We need people like you in this town and we need to all get rid of and "out" these LOW LIFE scums that ripoff the hard working people in our community.
