I’ve used this device multiple times and it has never let me down. I love the service that’s provided.

Mohamed Hogue

What made my experience great? Trackhawk helped me and my installer to answer any questions that we had with the installation and GPS Killswitch. Also they help us setup information on the app. The device is awesome! I give it five stars. I highly recommend you have someone to install it with experience. We owe a luxury car rental business. We had several people who had stolen our cars, is the reason why we purchase the device. Now we will have a peace of mind knowing that we have a killswitch that can prevent the thief from stealing our cars and not getting to far away.

I wanted to take a moment to share how the Trackhawk GPS system has significantly impacted our operations at Am Can, particularly with our truck fleet at remote job sites. 
 
Trackhawk GPS has truly been a game changer for us. As we deliver port-a-pottys in remote areas, the ability to know the exact location of our trucks at all times is crucial for our operations. With a few of our trucks equipped with the kill switch trackers, the system has been nothing short of a game-changer - no more guesswork or headaches. The platform is intuitive and tracking has never been easier.

Questions

We provide the ultimate tracking solution for fleet managers' peace of mind.

Where on the bus do you install the Trackhawk GPS tracker?

The installation location of a GPS tracker on a bus depends on various factors, including the type of tracker being used, the specific requirements of the bus operator, and the desired level of concealment. Here are some common installation locations for GPS trackers on buses: Dashboard: One common location is on the dashboard near the windshield. This provides a clear view of the sky for optimal GPS signal reception and is easily accessible for installation and maintenance. Under the dashboard: Some GPS trackers are compact enough to be installed discreetly under the dashboard, keeping them out of sight while still providing good signal reception. Roof: Installing the GPS tracker on the roof of the bus can provide excellent signal reception, but it may be more exposed to environmental factors such as weather and vandalism. Engine compartment: Placing the GPS tracker in the engine compartment can protect it from tampering and vandalism, but it may also be subject to higher temperatures and vibration. Interior: Depending on the design of the bus and the level of security needed, the GPS tracker could be installed inside the bus, such as under a seat or in a concealed panel. Battery compartment: Some GPS trackers have battery backup options and can be installed in the battery compartment for added security. Trailer hitch: If the bus is pulling a trailer, the GPS tracker can be installed on the trailer hitch or frame to track both the bus and the trailer.

You can put a GPS tracker on almost any kind of bus, including: Public transportation buses: These include city buses, intercity buses, and regional buses operated by government or private companies.
