What is the Best Remote Starter?
#2
I purchased the OEM extended range (bi-directional) one and installed it myself. It has a range of a little over 1000 feet. I got mine from Tasca Ford. I love it especially when it's cold outside. It's nice to get into a warm car and drive off while everyone else is having to sit in the parking lot waiting for the defrost to melt the ice from their windshield.

I got a viper alarm and remote start system, claimed a mile of range but I never tested it's distance. I never had any issues with it, and the 2 way function was great because I could tell when my car was running or not.

Thanks man! Where in Texas are you?
Sweet, I was looking into both of y'alls options, I just am worried about the viper alarm having issues later down the road like the alarm going off randomly. I would love to use the alarm app from the phone though.

the first was a 2005 F-150, then I had it professionally re-installed on a 2013 GT and the only complaint was that it only came with 1 2-way remote and both my ex and I wanted one.
As to which alarm you get I would go based on what you want out of it. If you want the long range I think there are only 1-2 options and those are the higher end alarms. if all you want is the remote start then you can probably get away with the inexpensive versions and while they don't have the range, you should be able to start the car if it is a few hundred yards away... maybe less lol, haven't tested any
Glad I could help!

I installed a 1500' range two way CompuStar remote start in my 2007 F150 and love it. It has the LCD screen that tells you the inside temp of the truck.
