I believe there is a directive that was passed some years ago in the EU that all new cars (sold from last tear on) need to have a smart tracking system in them. Eventually you will not be able to get away.

I was trying to get some info, never did.
Personally I do 95% of my miles on a BMW GS. Just spooned on some new Next's today. They're pretty stiff.
It's a rare striped version, ordered it that way. Not even ABS, to fit the triple capacity battery, and my own electronics.
My truck is tuned, wired, out-fitted with my stuff, no it doesn't roll coal, that's rubber!
I used to do many miles on a snow mobile, a sled. Most worker sleds, and bigger things had gps trackers I installed. People did get in trouble. My 1100 sled had no tracker, just the one in the radio I'd turn off. Tagging something cost like $1.50/mo.
Anyway, like I pointed out in that thread, eventually if you're not tagged you will stick out like a sore thumb, the opposite of invisible when in sight. I won't bleed to death, I'll likely be eaten.
