Kirk W Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 Do you know the owners? One big problem with those is the way that they all look pretty much the same and so are not easy to identify. License plate numbers might help, at least until they get it sold to someone. Good travelin !...............KirkFull-time 11+ years......

All I know is what is in the article. Picked it up off "Just A Car Guy" blog and figured I would post it where it might do some good.

kathydavidb Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 Didn't Airstreams come with a unit number or something in the back -- 6" red numbers or something? The red 6 in. numbers you see on many Airstreams is actually a member # for the Wally Byam Club. Not all Airstream owners join so you will see some with the # and some with out. You can look up the club members in a directory by that # and thus know who just passed by. Dave. 2006 Coachmen Aurora 36ft. Class A motor home. 2009 Honda CRV toad.

JC and Angie Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 Just read an update that the owners left a iPad inside and the dumb ass crooks turned it on and a "ping" was heard by the police. They tracked it to a house and have interviewed and detained persons of interest. So there might be hope. 2009 Volvo 780.

skp51443 Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 New idea for a security device, ebay an old cheap tablet and just leave it in your rig so the crooks can locate themselves for the police.

GeorgiaHybrid Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 For recovery options, it would be a lot simpler to use what the used car guys do to be able to find and recover a car when the buyer quits paying for it... They can be hidden in a small area and activated when needed. http://www.rmtracking.com/auto-dealer-gps.php 2017 Kenworth T6802015 DRV 38RSSA Elite Suites2016 Smart Prime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
