Anyone ever used one of these devices?? If so point me to a good website for one? I have a son with a 05 Cobalt SS and stage II...ect....I think I need to check up on him or atleast have him know I'm watching.....
Thanks in advance..
Hope this doesnt violate Forum rules...but figured there would be someone knowledgeable out there..
Couldn't say I have.
Onstar maybe can help, also the insurance companies have been teaming up with parents for some type of device. I think you even get a discount for doing so.

Davis makes a great product that should satisfy the age-old "Inquiring Minds Wanna Know" issues parents have when teen drivers are out of sight but not mind. They even make a wireless model to unobtrusivley transfer the data to a pc.
The SS is supercharged, right? Since it's a new car, I take it that he didn't buy it on his own? Just seems odd to me to buy a really fast car as a first car for a new young driver, then really want to make sure they aren't getting into trouble..... shoulda got the base engine.
Ah well, I know when I was 16, while I did do some stupid things in my '93 Coupe DeVille, compared to what the majority of my HS classmates did, I was a much better driver, I flat out refused to ride in the car of about a dozen other kids.... they ended up wrecking anything, so good for me.
Still tho, I'd say just talking to him will do alot more then some car nanny device.... thats just me tho.

It's too late now. You raised a son you can't trust. The horse is out of the barn. Welcome to every parents nightmare. My guess is that pretty soon the court system will have a monitor on his leg if he's still alive.
Buy the kid a POS that can't get out of it's own way. Parents who buy their kids high performance cars then wonder why little (insert kids name here) wrapped it around a pole deserve what they get.
