Fortunately, I have some good news. In comparison to all of the things for your car that you already spend money on, a GPS tracker will probably be one of the most inexpensive. There are a few things to think about when it comes to pricing though. For the device up front, at the lower end you could pay between $25 and $50. However, these are typically not car-specific devices, and wouldn’t have some of the features that you would like to have for this purpose. For a more feature-rich device, you’re looking at between $80 and $100. And for the higher-end trackers, expect to pay anywhere between $150 and $200.
Don’t forget, though, that you’ll need a monthly service plan for 99.9% of GPS devices like this. These can range from anywhere between $5 and $50, with most of them falling in the $15 to $20 range. Some manufacturers will actually waive the cost of the device if you sign a longer contract for the service plan. You may have to commit up front, but this could easily save you well over $100, so it’s a good option to consider.
