What alarms do you all have?
Just wondering what alarm do you all have on your trucks? I am in the market for one. I am just looking to be pointed in the right direction. Any suggestions?

Ive got a Viper 550ESP. Remote start, keyless entry and alarm. I installed it myself. It is the fourth 550 I have installed. Wasnt a whole lot of fun but it is possible to do yourself.

mine's pretty neato, when you close the door and push the lock button twice, the horn honks...but it has water in it so it sounds really crappy. oh and it flashes the word "security" for a nifty theft deterrent system

i have the viper 790xv or some call it the responder. It is a cool *** alarm and has the remote with the read out. I got almost every option i could. If my sister did not work were i got it; it would of been realy expensive. They told me they would of charged me like $1000 just to install it. it took them like 3 days also. Only complaint is remote is a little big and cost like $100 to replace. I broke one in about 5 months. But i got the hook up and got two new ones free and a new brane free so i am not complaining.

.Seriously...Clifford (like that bigass red dog, not beer) alarms are great. Remote start, different zones, glass breakage, I have seen able to roll down windows, etc. Only one I'd go with.

yea my windows roll down and then you lock it and they go up. All kinds of bs like back up bateries and sirens and tilt sensors. The windows are ok. BUT you all know how our windows suck at going up and well sometimes my driver does not roll up all the way. I think because it bindes too much and trips the relay i am guessing as a safety feature or like the window is all the way up. The thing i do like alot is it made both my windows one touch up and down= very cool. i wanted just a normal alarm with remote start but ended up with this one.
o and the remot start did not work with the cam till i got the idle raised to 1000rpm's
