I have been looking into an alarm system such as the Viper 5900sst lately. However, based of some of the experience with alarms and the protection specs, which alarm do most of you guys recommend that has the features you need and the crap that you don't? Thanks in advance..Jamie

I live in (Valencia) Santa Clarita, CA and there are H2's everywhere. I have not heard of this type of hate out here.

I have been broken into numerous times and had a good deal of expensive gear stolen. I had my truck stolen once. I don't think any of that had to do with tree huggers, just criminals. I have had my truck spat upon several times and had animal feces thrown on the windshield (at the natural food co-op of course). I had someone put a note on my windshield telling me that I am the reason we are at war in Iraq. I have been flipped off more times than I can remember and had one french woman stand in the road and flag me down as if she was in distress, only to tell me that she hated my "car". But then again, driving home from Big Bear in today's high winds, My vehicle was th only one on the freeway with a high enough weight to profile ratio to maintain a decent speed. I dig my truck and they can all go fukk themselves.

I have had numerous acquaintances tell me how they hated my car and how eco-irresponsible I am as they got into their Suburbans and Excursions.

Definitely move. I'm in south Texas and have had nothing but positive comments on my truck for 4 years now. Most people come up to me to tell me it's their dream truck or want to see the inside. Get out of CA and you'll see the vandalism stop.

Any time you live in an area with a bunch of liberal hippies you are gonna be a victum, these people are so blinded and ignorant they should be shipped off to thier own little island somewhere with no cars at all. There are quite a few Hummers all over my area, I have never had an issue, got a dirty look from some wormy looking little fag in a Prius last month but thats about the extent of it.
