Talking New Toy!

So Tuesday i got my Clifford Alarm installed, complete with remote start and all that good stuff. And man do I love it!!!

i just wish i had the money to buy all the add-ons. Its a Clifford RSX 3.5 i got off from eBay. List price was $550, paid less than $200 shipped!

only thing i wish it had was the 1 mile range...but o well

I had a Clifford alarm on my old Prelude. Always worked flawlessly.

i had remote start on my old 4runner and loved it. one time i was at a friends house and the mowers showed up. i started it from inside and one mower actually stopped, walked to my 4runner looked in and just had a completely confused look on his face.

did you get the GPS addition, and all the automatic features like window roll up, etc??

Remote Start, sounds like a great way to decrease your fuel economy


On the other hand, I want one too

We've put in quite a few Viper 5900's at work...started it at a gas station between 3/4 and a mile away.

Viper > Clifford
