Looking to buy a good GPS tracker for a enclosed trailer. Any recomendations?

This is the one recommended by Schaechter and Casey Miles (see the stolen race car thread). I wouldn’t hesitate to heed either of their advice (except what converter to run of course LOL). Plan on picking one up myself.

I have had one in my trailer for more than 5 years.
GPS Tracker TK103A.

You just need to purchase a sim card, mine is through T-Mobile. It's a prepaid card. Costs me about $100 per year.
When you call the number, it will text a map link to you to show where the vehicle is located. You can also program a geo-fence, and can connect to door contacts.
No monthly subscriptions.
