Hey guys i am wondering about getting a alarm for my truck Just to make sure no one breaks into it and steals my system or anything and i am wondering what would work best for my truck. It is a 2001 gmc sierra. I have been looking at some of the viper alarms and they look good but i am wondering if i will be spending too much for what i need and such. here is what i have been looking at.

I am wondering if that one will work for what i want or am i paying too much for it. and does it come with the sirens and everything i noticed some do not.

also will i need these at all?

Can't go wrong with a viper alarm man...but you didn't really say what you were looking to get out of it. If it has all the functions your looking for, then Id get it; but just know I believe Directed is not authorizing online dealers so its not under manufacturer's warranty (Ray just made a thread about this). the extra shock sensors I don't really see necessary mainly because a shock sensor should be able to sense any glass breaking, opening doors, etc....maybe if the thieves around your town are super crafty.

What i am trying to get out of it is get the best protection i can of my truck and also get a paging system so i know if anyone is trying to mess with my truck when i am not near it. i want a sensitive alarm and loud one lol.

I would definitely hit up Orion for that deal then....just like everything else though, always understand that if someone wants your shit bad enough, they're gonna get it. If you have a smart phone Id get the smartstart system too so you can monitor and control your car from anywhere.

My brother had one go bad after less then a month. Emailed sonic and they took care of him quickly. No, not manufacture warranty but sonic does tend to be a safe place to buy from.
