My 03 GMC 2500HD SLE D/A will have the factory keyless entry system. My dealor is saying that the factory system will only sound the alarm if a perp were to bust the window and open the door, that there is no shock senser or ign cutoff. They are offering a alarm upgrade for $400.

Like the finish coating I am wondering if this is another BS deal? My buddy has a new Z28 and his factory alarm works just like any other alarm....goes off in a thunderstorm ect....

They're right about the factory alram but I sure wouldn't pay them 400 bucks for an alarm. If I wanted an alarm I'd get an aftermarket alarm installed elsewhere and get to pick what I wanted for less money than the stealership.

I agree with first diesel, I have had after market installed on my truck and it was alot cheaper and better quality than the stealor-oops I mean dealer. :D
