Fuel economy is of little importance in KSA. How much to fill the tank? 15$?

Cheers for the update. I'm eyeing the Dodge Durango (crew model) at the moment and a big part of that is for the remote start. If you don't mind me asking, what did you pay in the end?

180kSAR.

Something like that. I mentioned more as a curiosity. I expected much worse economy.

Also made a cool noise when the alarm went off. If anyone has ever heard a Clifford you will know exactly what I mean.

Pretty sure you can.

Mate had it on his Silverado. Said you can get it put on any car. 600dhs somewhere.

Want to investigate.

Get her a Geely CK and then when you add remote start the book value of the car will go up 50%.

Me - No
Hertz guy - But its 2013 model
Me - No No No No No No No No No (a la Ben Kingsley in Sexy Beast)
Hertz guy - Emgrand? (this is to Geely what Lexus is to Toyota sort of)

Why not? I would have taken it for the comedy. It can't be any worse than the Chevy Matiz I got lumbered with for 2 weeks once. Another red-line screamer.
