    I’m pretty sure my car doesn’t have tracking, and it’s from the mid 2000s. Phoning home wasn’t standard until relatively recent car models. I could absolutely be wrong though, but my understanding is that any wireless capabilities it has are limited to close proximity (i.e. tire pressure sensors and the like).

      Standard in 2008 If the auto manufacturer offered OnStar or Sirius, earlier.

      I wish it wasn’t true, and I definitely feel like a nut job when I bring it up.

        Huh, both my cars are just before 2008 (2007 and 2006), and base models so they don’t have any fancy features like satellite radio.

        Replacing those two is going to suck…

        In America, not the rest of the world.
