I have the spot x and it has saved me a few times .. I drive a logging truck for a living and there's been a few times i've been broke down 80 kms in the bush and have been able to get help coming my way quickly. one time blown steering tire ,one time blown drive line , one time a blew a rad hose , and other times for other truckers been able to get help for them as well , of course this always seem to happen 1:00 - 2:00 in the morning.. lol
its always worked for me weather for work or when iam up north hunting.. i pay for the year at a time and i think its around $140 and if you go over your limit its 25 cents a text.. although i have heard good things about inreach i can only tell about my experience with spot x and so far its been good
