Okay, so you suspect your spouse is cheating and you want proof.  One of the first places to start is to track their vehicle so you know where they’ve been and where they are going.

The good news is tracking a vehicle using GPS is now simpler than ever and can be done covertly – that is without your spouse needing to know.

Tracking solutions have become very inexpensive and there are now literally hundreds of options, which for the uninformed makes choosing a tracker challenging.  I’ll provide you with some general information in this post, and more specific information and “how to insights” in later posts.

All trackers use one common trait, they use the US governments GPS satellite network to determine vehicle location.  Some trackers are passive, that is they don’t use cellular networks to transmit their location, these trackers are know as “GPS data loggers”.  They are useful for logging trip mileage for expense reporting, but just can’t give you the “real time” information you need to track your spouse.

So what you are looking for is a “wireless GPS tracker”.  Most of these devices were designed to track business fleet vehicles and need to be connected to the vehicle electrical system.  These hardwired devices are fine if you’re prepared to have the tracker installed in the vehicle, but I would not recommend this approach.  You need a battery operated device.  Hardwired trackers often require mounting of external antennas and for that reason, which just won’t work for covert tracking.

There is a new class of wireless tracker that uses advanced technology from Qualcomm, known as “assisted gps”.    Now I know you don’t need me geeking out on you, so here’s the net, these devices consume low power and can therefore operate for long periods on battery.  They also don’t need an external antenna and can determine their location without needing to have a clear view of the sky, so you can easily and quickly hide them inside the vehicle.

Law enforcement agencies have been using these solutions for years – yes, if you’ve been bad, they likely are tracking you.  You can now get exactly the same technology at a fraction of the price.  Here is a great example, the Best Buy Insignia “Little Buddy”, designed as a “Child Tracker”, this tracker will work just fine.

This product is a bit hard to find on the Best Buy site, you can simply use the link above to purchase.

Okay – coming up next will be a series of posts to show you exactly how to track your cheating spouse using the wireless gps tracker.

Here are the four most common signs of a cheating spouse:

1. Abnormal cell phone behavior. Has your partner has been hiding their cell phone, or quickly leaving the room to take phone calls?

2. Smell of another person’s perfume or cologne. Noticed this? Has your partner suddenly started doing their own laundry at strange hours? Do they shower as soon as they arrive home?

3. Leaving the house at unusual hours. Is your spouse working late nights when they didn’t use to? Or going to see some friend that you’ve never heard of?

4. Their PC’s internet history is constantly being deleted and they act suspiciously when checking email and during online chatting.
