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.
Just found this on ebay.

Benny, bought the kit off your website on Sunday evening, received it yesterday and will be installing this weekend. What's the best way to get a hold of you on Monday for activation? Thanks, Rick

How is your remote access working? I am looking at getting it for my 2012 F-150 soon.

Thanks,

Does anyone know how the Drone Mobile RSD-3100AS compares to the Ford OEM Remote Access Part No: DL3Z-19A390-B?

I know your asking someone else, but in my eyes it was the best money next to a tuner you can spend on your truck.

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.

Love it. Simple: it took longer to zip tie down than to plug in . Not having to hack up your harness and no remote on your keys.
