I too live out by Cold Lake ( Ardmore area lol) and it works just fine on my FX4 in the cold. It's not $900 either.... I paid just over $600 Canadian for the parts from the dealer in Westlock and the parts guy activated it from his desktop for no charge. That said the tards up here wanted something like $1300 to install it for me..... lol. I have it on my XLT and on my FX4. For the $50 a year it's nice being able to start the trucks no matter the distance or layers of steel and concrete I may be under. They use the Telus/Bell network for coverage and it works anywhere my cell phone does.

Not bad. With the shipping quoted it's still $525 Canadian plus gst and any duty on top of that...... and I bet shipping to me is more than $19.42. I will buy locally and have it the sae day for that little of difference..... if any at all.

A guy I work with has an aftermarket one. The cool thing about it is he can see the status of his truck and also has GPS location. His cost around $1200 for the total install. For our trucks if you have the 100 series then you have $500 into it and the cell module is another $450. So price wise you do pay for the extra features.
