Installed
just thought i would give an update.
i finally got the remote start installed. i paid about $125 at a place in Garland, texas. really nice guys. they did it in about 3 hours.
i love having the new capability now. the alarm has not tripped yet, so it doesnt seem too sensitive. the only thing i could complain about would be the range. it works great at distances (up to 2000 ft) if the truck is facing you(antenna is mounted in the front window) and is in plain view. other wise, if your in a brick building, you have to be within about 50 ft. it works from inside my house though so thats my main concern. i like the internal temperature monitor and the two way feature(lets you know if the truck recieved the signal or not). turbo timer is nice and i can leave it runnin, take the keys out, lock it, run in the gas station real quick. thanks for all the advice guys. i did have an issue at first with it not cranking long enough to turn the engine over, but i contacted the instaler and they walk me through the steps to change a few settings and now it cranks right up every time.
