Lol, it actually can if you can find it. I won't lie, we've recovered a few vehicles and bikes with the help of the tracking device, and some bikes were lost, cos the tracker was removed. With the tracker, you have a higher chance of recovering your car. It's better than nothing.

I see. So it seems to me that the strength of the tracker is in security-by-obsucurity, it is secure because it is hidden and hard to find or because it is on. I agree that having a tracker is better than none but I feel those that market it kind of market it as a silver bullet that is the ultimate answer to stolen vehicle. For me I think it is on of many options to be deployed in mitigating the risk of one's vehicle being stolen. I asked because I know (and have used) some techniques in quickly identify and isolating GPS trackers and was wondering if car trackers operate by some different mewns

Trackers can also be connected to softwares which logs info on vehicle movement history, trips and stops and a lot more.. these features can also help you know where your vehicle has been incase the tracking unit was disconnected. IMO these tracking services are essentially for emergency purpose, if you can't find your vehicle,you immediately track it, you don't let it sit with the thief to figure out how to look for it & disable it. There are a lot of scenarios, but so far so good in Nigeria , they are 89.3% reliable if done properly.

nokspos:
hybrid cars are very low in fuel consumption , anything hybrid means using two technology , or two different animal to make a birth of another animal , for example; an hybrid dog can be a breed of lion and real dog , so this dog will be special because it has a trait of lion and dog , it will also have a better look and performance because the dog is likely to inherit many characteristics from both the dog and lion parent.

in the case of hybrid car, its like tesla battery car but that uses fuel engine as well. imagine using tesla car that you won't have to recharge , all you just need to do is fuel the car, the engine in the car will charge the battery then immediately the battery is fully charged , it will switch to full time battery and the car will make no sound till the battery is low again then the engine will start working and this makes every hybrid car to have a very low power consumption.

The problem with hybrid car is maintenance, most road side mechanics in nigeria don't know how to fix the engine if it has any problem , inshot , you might have to condemn the car if you have major problem because your life will be frustrated trust me .
Thanks so much for this. Pls what's the english word for "slow" in that speedometer that is on the extreme left of the dashboard, that has the letters RPM?
