[QUOTE="tojohnso, post: 8226498, member: 659655"] As mentioned earlier, I have the Python 5906. What I like about it is the features are real easy to find on the remote. I like that it works at a great distance and lets me know it received the command (2-way). I can set it to automatically start if the inside of the truck gets hotter or colder than temperature ranges I can set from the remote. I can set it up to start after a particular time passes (timer mode) and repeat it so many times. I can ask it to provide me with the current temperature inside the vehicle so I can decide if I want to start it before I get in. When I remote start the truck, it's timer is set for 12 minutes. When it gets close to the end, it let's me know so I can extend the time if I want to. When I go to a convenience store, I can turn the motor over to the remote control unit and remove the key so I don't have to leave it in. The remote has an OLED color screen and it has animations that let you easily see what is going on with the vehicle. I like that the system will "page" the remote to advise of something going on with the truck when I can't see it. It's a piece of mind thing for me. If I want, later on I can add the remote phone module that has a GPS option so I can see what's going on when I'm out of town, or it's out of range (over a clear mile away), and can see where it is if I'm not the one driving it. What do I not like about it? The remote's firmware can be updated. But only by an authorized dealer. Is that a good thing? In the world of security, maybe it is. But I wish I could update it myself. I also wish I could manipulate the settings of the in-car unit myself too because there are some settings that can't be adjusted by the remote. Not sure what bigaudiofanatic's issue is with DEI products, but maybe he knows something I don't - I'm not an expert. But I do know and understand technology. So far, I'm impressed overall with the product. Maybe the 5906 being their top model is the thing and the cheaper units lack something. [/QUOTE]
