Definitely, already got that done along with a remote start. It won't ever sleep outside the garage overnight, it was only outside because I was painting

The saddest truth of owning a truck in Texas. Mine was broken into twice. And they tried a third but Jimmy jammer did its job.

Keep up the good work man. Awesome build!

I'd definitely have a hardwired GPS tracker on it.

Lojack is antiquated and overpriced. There are a myriad of options out there now. A lot are focused on teen safety/tracking.

I don't have one on my car, but the threat of theft where I regularly park isn't very high.

Here are a few I would consider. I'd probably do a piggy back OBDII connection behind the knee panel to be less conspicuous.

Some people use an old hardwired iPhone with a find my iPhone app too.

Many ways to go about it these days.

Got a PTP turbo blanket. Also ordered a custom coolant tank/catch can combo which should really make the left side of the engine bay look much better.

Organized the garage and started using the bed as storage again

Looks great!

What brand is your catch can? I like the way it mounts... away from the battery junction.
