“THANK YOU RAVELCO!, In early September 2011, I was told by a Louisiana State Policeman, that I was wasting my money on an alarm system and I should get a Ravelco on my new 2012 F-350 Ford Super Duty Pick Up truck. I met him at a Best Buy while inquiring on an alarm system. The window sticker was over $70,000 but I paid a little less for it. I never heard of Ravelco so my wife wrote it down and Googled it right there at Best Buy. After reading about the Ravelco, I decided against the alarm and wanted a Ravelco. After contacting you, I was sad to learn that you did not have any dealers in Lafayette or nearby but I was told that if I drive a little you all would meet me half way and install it at the San Jacinto Mall in Baytown, TX. I did just that. Your installers were fun and professional. Now, here is why I am thanking you. Last Saturday morning, 6 of us went duck hunting. We had 3 trucks total, all Ford Super Duties, mine was the newest and the others were a 2011 and a 2008 year models. After hunting, when we arrived back at the parking lot, my truck was the only truck of the three still there. Both of the other trucks were stolen. My passenger side window and steering column were destroyed but my truck was still there. I plugged the Ravelco in and used a screw driver to turn the ignition on and it started right up! Thank you so much for the service and an excellent product. I will have a Ravelco in every vehicle I have for the rest of my days. Incidentally, the police found one of the trucks (2011) the very next day in Corpus Christi, TX, it was out of fuel and on the side of the road with no back seats. Thanks again for a great product.” - Ty L. - Broussard, Louisiana

"RAVELCO SAVED THE DAY" - We own a three month old 2011 Ford SVT Raptor, we didn't even receive the payment book yet and our beautiful truck was stolen. We live in a GATED community south of Houston. They found our truck a week later in Progreso Lakes, a city on the border of Texas and Mexico. Thank God but the only thing different to the truck was an additional 400 miles on it. Believe it or not but the crook left his radar detector in the truck (which is nice). As soon as we got our truck back the towing-wrecker company in Houston suggested we install a Ravelco. Coincidentally, at the time of purchase the salesman did mention this to us but of course at the time we did not pay attention. We just wanted to get our new truck and get home. This is the reason for my letter to ya'll . . . Last Saturday night at Bingo, some bums tried to steal our truck again. They made a dent under the door lock and opened the door, then they broke the steering column and tried to start the truck. When we came out we noticed the interior light on as well as the entire dash lights. The idiots left our door open but our truck was still there! THANK YOU RAVELCO !!!!! One note, at the time of our Ravelco installation we did not want the Ravelco window stickers. (My husband does not like stickers) PLEASE - PLEASE forgive us and send 2 stickers to the address below. I was told that the thieves do know Ravelco and would not have even bothered if they knew we had the Ravelco installed in the first place." - June 2011 - Karen A. - Clear Lake, Texas      

"Thank You for making a great product.  I own a 2007 F-250 SUPERDUTY Lariat 4X4 with a Ranch hand front bumper, several BANKS upgrades and 5th wheel hitch.  I had a Ravelco antitheft device installed a couple of yrs ago.  I was skeptical at first until the other day while doing some Christmas shopping with my wife and daughter.  After shopping we stopped to grab some lunch for approx. 1hr.  On our way back to the truck, I pushed the unlock door key on our remote and noticed 4 honks from the factory alarm that came with the truck.  My wife and I thought someone opened their car door and set off the alarm.  When I went to open the door I noticed that the keyhole mechanism had been punched in by a screwdriver and the door was unlocked.  I thought the worst, all the possible damage to the steering column and all valuables gone.  The steering column and ignition switch were still intact but I could tell that someone had put something in the ignition and tried to start the vehicle.  Now the bad thing was that the losers did get away with a few Christmas presents totaling a whopping $35.00  HA HA HA.  I'm not sure exactly what saved my truck from being stolen that day but when we spoke to the authorities, they advised us that ours was the 6th truck that day that had been broken into and ours was the only one that was NOT stolen, I have to owe it to RAVELCO. The other 5 trucks had been taken.  Now the damage bill to replace the plastic door mechanism and tumbler is around $130.00, that sure beats having to replace my $51,000.00 truck.  Once again THANK YOU!!!!! for making a great product.  I highly recommend everyone install a RAVELCO product in their vehicle." - December 2010 - Mike - New Mexico

"RAVELCO SAVED OUR TRUCK AND WE THANK YOU RAVELCO – On May 14, I took delivery of a 2011 F-250 Super Duty Truck. Before delivery, I called your office to ask if someone could remove the Ravelco lock from my old truck (2005 F-250) and install it in my new one. To be honest I was quite upset at ya’ll because you said it would be more expensive to do because you would have to remove the old Ravelco and trace the circuits in my old truck to connect them back together like the factory had them and then fully install the old Ravelco in my new truck. I understand now, but it still made me upset that it would cost more than a new one. I took your advice and left the Ravelco in my old truck when we traded it in. After pouting a few days I finally called your company (glad I did) in Houston and scheduled an install. Your installer came to Greenway Plaza (my work) and installed it. The very next day at a shopping center in Pearland, as I walked out of the store I noticed broken glass on the ground and realized it was mine. The ignition was in the on position, the hood was open and it was attempted to be hot-wired. I guess the thieves did something to bypass the Ford factory “chip in the key security” because when I inserted the Ravelco plug, the truck started just by turning the ignition without the key. Thank you so much for your wonderful device. I am sorry I was upset at you at first, but in today’s economy and with the price of these new trucks (we paid more for it than our first home) every penny counts!" - Debra M - Alvin, Texas

"I wanted to send you and RAVELCO an unsolicited note to thank you for installing such a great product into my FORD F250. I cannot tell you how highly I recommend this product to ANYONE who wants to protect their investment. I tell everyone I see that has a Ford Super Duty or really nice car about your product. I give them your business card and tell them it worked for me. I bought a 2001 Ford F-250 crew cab 4 x 4 in August of 2009. I bought this truck knowing fully that it was one of the most stolen vehicles in the country. Being in Law Enforcement I knew that if my truck was stolen the chances of getting it back in one piece was going to be slim to none. Before I bought my truck I had researched a lot of different security systems. I finally settled on the Ravelco. Just for the simple reason that was a proactive security system vs an alarm system that is only reactive. Plus I have seen several high quality, top end alarms be bypassed and stolen with out the alarm ever going off. I had my truck about a week and called Ravelco to talk about the system. I spoke with Hampton Jensen who was the dealer for Tucson. Hampton was very knowledgeable and very professional. I set up a time for him to come out install the Ravelco on my truck with in the week. The installer showed up at my house to install the Ravelco. He was very professional and was very meticulous. I am very anal about my truck and was curious as to how this system is installed so I watched him install the entire system. It took him over three hours to install this system. This system is for real. A car thief would have to have several hours to figure out where the wires go and be able to retrace them back to where they are supposed to be. Even if they were to start “jumping” wires or plugs there is a better chance of blowing fuses then ever getting that vehicle to run. He did such a great job that even me as the owner had a hard time finding where all the wires went to. What a superb installation. I knew that this system was expensive but I didn’t want to loose my truck. After Hampton finished up and explained everything to me, he cleaned up every thing that he had out and left. Two and half hours after having the Ravelco installed in my truck I went to Costco too grab something. My wife and I were not in the store for more than 20 minutes in the middle of the day. When we came out to the truck I used the remote to unlock the truck. When I got in I heard a dinging noise and didn’t know why it was dinging at me. I then went to insert the key and realized that my ignition was destroyed.  It was at this time that I realized that someone had just tried to steal my truck. My truck that I had only owned for 1 week was saved due to “RAVELCO”. Ravelco you guy’s rock. You have an awesome product. I feel safe parking my truck anywhere at any time. It may be robbed of every thing in or on the truck but I am confident that my truck will be there when I come out, barring being towed away. As far as some one trying to steal it by means of hot wiring the truck. It’s not going to happen. Thank you very much for saving my truck. Feel free to use this testimonial on your website if you choose to." - J. Rammell - Tucson, AZ

"THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. On February 27, 2010, we were driving back from Falls Church, Virginia to our home in New Orleans. We were there settling up my Mom's estate sale. We rented a U-Haul trailer and pulled it with our 2010 F-350 Ford Pick Up. The trailer was filled, and I mean filled with my Mom’s furniture and irreplaceable mementos. We were very tired and we had to stop. I was scared to death because we were in Atlanta, Georgia and we had the trailer loaded with many of my Mom’s things that she wanted me to have. Arriving late we were unable to get a visible parking spot from our hotel window (as if that would had mattered). We parked in the far back of the hotel parking lot. This scared me. My husband told me “don’t worry, we have the Ravelco.” To be honest, I never used the Ravelco. I just thought of it as another toy my husband had to have. He had the Ravelco installed someplace near the Mexican border on a recent hunting trip. We were awoken around 5 AM by the hotel manager telling us that we left our truck door wide open. I know we did not leave it open, so I ran out of the room frantically thinking my Mom’s stuff was gone. I saw our truck's driver’s side door open and saw the steering wheel/column was ruined. A security guard said that the thieves must have been spooked and did not take the truck. After further inspection we noticed that all the lights on the dash were illuminated and the ignition switch was on. We discovered that the REAL REASON our truck could not be stolen was because the RAVELCO saved it! I could never thank you enough, and I promise to use the Ravelco from now on." - Mrs. M. Messier - Reserve, LA  

"What is this world coming to? Since March of 1998, I had a 1999 Ford Super Duty F-250 pick-up with your Ravelco device fitted on it. For 11 years I did not have even one attempted break in. This truck had over 550,000 miles on it and it was still running excellent. After speaking with a fast talking salesman a month ago while having my oil changed at a local Houston Ford  Dealer, I let him succeed in trading my truck for a new 2010 F-250. Yes, it was nice and the price was not too bad and of course like my old truck, I had the dealer install your Ravelco system when I took delivery. Well, it's a good thing because last Friday night while attending a high school football game, I came out to find that my brand new truck had a theft attempt. They damaged my drivers side door handle and completely destroyed my steering column, but thanks to the Ravelco they did not succeed. While trying to get my truck started these idiots spilled a drink and ruined my carpet. I am very picky, I had my other truck for 11 years and it did not have one scratch on it. Here it is, I trade it for a new one and in less than a month it is damaged. I know it can all be fixed but I feel violated! As I said previously in my letter to you, what is this world coming to? Again, thanks for the RAVELCO!" - Paul Chance, Pearland, TX

"I appreciate the efforts you and your company have made to control the auto theft problem in our city. The letters from your customers indicate that they are completely satisfied." - Sam Nuchia, Chief of Police, City of Houston, Texas

". . . arguably the best anti theft device known to man . . ." - Paul Harisim, THE HOUSTON POST

"I have literally sold thousands and thousands of Ravelcos in the last 25 years. They have never made a liar out of me. My customers will ask me which I recommend - the alarm or the RAVELCO? My answer has always truthfully been the RAVELCO. It is also an anti theft device that everyone can afford! I personally know how great the product is, but when our law enforcement customers request the Ravelco . . . I know that we made the right decision when we started selling them. I have seen a lot of different anti theft devices over the years, everything else has come and gone - but the RAVELCO is still here. That to me is a statement of dependability. I cease to offer any option that I lose confidence in. That has never been the case with the RAVELCO Anti Theft Device. It just keeps proving itself. We have customers who won't use anything else. Thank you for giving us a product we can confidently offer as a dependable anti theft device to our customers." - Sylvia Eden, Aftermarket Department Manager, Lawrence Marshall Chevrolet, Hempstead, Texas  (This is the Nation's Largest Chevrolet Dealership)

"I did lots of research to find a practical, affordable, and most of all, effective theft deterrent - and I ended up looking at Ravelco... I was present during the installation and can unequivocally state that this system is for real. On top of the Ravelco's design and the standard in-depth installation that uses yards of identical black wiring, I witnessed [my installer] doing several other Ravelco tricks in the engine bay, all of which were designed to thoroughly confuse a would-be thief. The Ravelco is a real paradox: a simple design that makes theft very tough for the bad guys. Interesting aspects of the Ravelco system include the fact that these wires work in pairs, and if a thief starts clipping them, your car won't run. Trying to imitate the coded plug by probing the base unit won't work either - with over 100,000 combinations, through 16 holes, this would take some time if you didn't start blowing fuses (Which you would!)... Car thieves are smart enough to swap out high-end vehicles' computers to work with a key that they already have, or write down the VIN number, go to a dealership, and get a new key for your car right there, but they won't be able to figure this out!" - Rick Jensen, Editor, GM High-Tech Performance Magazine

"I've just retired with 30 years of experience as a police officer, and I'm very familiar with the easy pickings of cars, even those equipped with traditional alarm systems. Professional car thieves keep up with the latest technology of these types of systems. Thus, they can often be defeated by a highly motivated well-trained criminal. Thieves target the car they want, and then work quickly to start them and usually bring them to a predetermined location where they can successfully strip them of the car parts that they are looking for. Car tracking systems may help locate the vehicle after it is stolen, but often the vehicle is already significantly damaged before it is found. People should understand that tracking systems are for vehicle recovery, not theft prevention. Traditional alarm and tracking systems don't always provide the type of deterrent and prevention that most automobile owners are looking for. Today, with the number of factory installed systems and after-market alarm devices, many people aren't even fazed when they hear a car alarm go off. The thieves know this. Given my experience as a cop, I'm familiar with your product, having seen many attempted motor vehicle thefts foiled when they couldn't get the car started. After exploring many types of systems, I chose the Ravelco system for my personal vehicle. In my opinion, it is the best device on the market to achieve my main objective, which is not to be able to start the car in the first place. With your system, I can park my car and rest assured that it will be there when I return. If by some chance they do try to steal it, I'm confident that they'll quickly give up and take their business elsewhere, saving me a lot of unnecessary grief, aggravation and down time that owners experiences when their car is stolen." – Bill Abbatematteo, retired Police Captain, North Providence, Rhode Island Police Department

"Just an unsolicited note to tell you that this 8th Ravelco Anti Theft Device is performing wonderfully in my latest vehicle (a 1999 1 Ton 24 Valve Cummins Turbo Diesel). I could not rest until I had a Ravelco installed. As a retired police chief, I can attest to the many reports that came to my attention over the years of stolen vehicles and of those attempts that failed. All of the latter categories were protected by Ravelco. Sure a window had to be replaced and perhaps a new steering column cover and ignition installed . . . BUT THE VEHICLE STAYED PUT JUST WHERE THE OWNERS PARKED THEM! You have a remarkable product, state of the art knowledge and a bona fide "honest" approach to your customers and their security needs. You are free to use any portion of my endorsement for Ravelco." - W.G. "Bill" Rush, FBI NATIONAL ACADEMY GRADUATE, Houston, Texas

"Protection Perfection" - Denise Adams, Staff Reporter, The Fort Bend Herald Newspaper, Fort Bend County, Texas

"Just wanted to thank you guys for doing a fine job. I had a "Yankee" show up at the dealership in Houston where I was picking up my truck, I just bought it. it is a 2005 F-350 King Ranch dually. Everything was completed quickly and it was simple to use and remember. Very clean and professional job done. I picked up the truck on a Thursday. I anticipated some "trouble" anytime since this vehicle is a King Ranch. Sure enough, 2 days later on a Saturday, someone popped off my door lock with a screwdriver, but immediately saw your Ravelco device, and left the truck. No interior damage, but it seems like even the thieves are starting to realize what Ravelco really means. I'm not stressed. in fact, I was relieved to see my "baby" right where i left it: in front of my dad's house in a cul-de-sac where nothing ever happens in that neighborhood. until now. There was not even an attempt to stick that screwdriver into the ignition. no interior damage at all. You guys are absolutely right when you say that the vehicle is not leaving. I called the Houston police department today on a Sunday and no word from them yet. I guess they're not interested anymore in thefts of F-350s. Probably too many to count. Thank you once again from the bottom of my heart. I'm glad i picked you guys. Yours", April 2011 - Dominic Khoo

"Just wanted to express my thanks for a product that works. I purchased Ravelco in 2008, and never had an incident until yesterday. My car was parked in a downtown L.A. parking lot in the early morning hours, when a thief used a concrete block to smash the passenger front window in. Thankfully, a friend witnessed the event and called LAPD, response time was immediate. Officers later indicated that the thief was attempting to jump start my car, I credit the failure to Ravelco, he never found the plug port. Thanks again", Michael Dee Installed: 9/17/08

"I would like to order one plug. The car in question belongs to my mother. I had your device installed on my car (Honda) and my mother's car (Toyota) at the same time. Your device has saved my mother's car at least twice. I love the product and think it is the best anti device made." - Charles R. - Sherman Oaks CA - April 2011 

"I wanted to send you and RAVELCO an unsolicited note to thank you for installing such a great product into my FORD F250. I cannot tell you how highly I recommend this product to ANYONE who wants to protect their investment. As you know I had my truck stolen and completely stripped in October 2009, however, since recovering the truck (or what was left of it in December) and subsequently installing RAVELCO, there have been two new attempts to steal it (once from an office building and once from a restaurant parking lot) and the thieves were completely unsuccessful. For anyone who has any doubt that this device is legit, please feel free to show them this email. Best Regards", Sean Hill Schulgen, President, Mustang Realty Group, LLC, Dallas, Texas

"I had a Ravelco switch installed in my 2006 Ford F350 in January 2008 after reading the statistics on my vehicle being one of the most stolen in Texas. A Ravelco representative installed it in my parking lot at work so it was very convenient. In October 2008, thieves tried to steal my truck out of a popular restaurant in Channelview, Texas during the lunch hour. My truck was right in front of the restaurant in full view of the security cameras. The thieves passed by my truck, then backed up and parked one car over. A guy jumped out and the other guy started to drive away. When the thief was unable to start my Truck, his accomplice had to pull back to my truck to pick him up. The thief punched a hole right under my driver's door handle which opened the lock. They tore off the ignition switch and had the alternator running. Unable to get my truck started, they grabbed the radio. This all happened in less than 3 minutes. Thank you Ravelco for saving my truck!" - Sarah Van Riper, Friendswood, TX

" I am a big fan of Ravelco - - it has prevented our Suburban from being stolen no less than 3 times.  However, I live in the New Orleans area and you have no dealers listed nearby. Although I do not need your product immediately, I would like to install it when we replace our Suburban sometime in the next year. Where is your nearest dealer? If we drove to Houston, where the original device was installed in our current car, would it be able to be done in a day if we made an appointment ahead of time? I'm disappointed you have not spread into our area, although that might have contributed to our potential thieves not knowing why they could not start the car.  During the first attempt the thieves even pulled our auto manual from the glove dept. to see why their usual MO did not succeed. Thanks" - Diane Rossi, New Orleans, LA

"Early on Easter Sunday at the El Palachio hotel parking lot in Miami while I was on vacation, my 2004 Chevy Tahoe was broken into. The thieves stole my GPS system and satellite radios that were installed in my SUV and they tried to steal my SUV. Judging by the damage they did to the steering column, ignition, and front grill, they must have spent a good while trying to take my car. While they got my equipment, they couldn't steal the car. That was due to the excellent installation job done by Chuck Wigham of the Ravelco anti theft device. I still have my truck thanks to Ravelco and Chuck. You have the best car anti-theft device on the market in my opinion and your installers are courteous and professional. Thanks for making such a great product." - Patrick Witt, Brooklyn NY

"I just wanted to say thank you for saving my truck last night. If it wasn’t for your system being installed I would have walked out to an empty driveway this morning. Outstanding product." - Justin C, Chandler, Arizona.

" I just want to let you know how much I appreciate your time and effort on installing my Ravelco in 2005. I met you in Maryland and got the install done. I have since move to Atlanta, GA. I woke up one morning in Jan. 2008 and saw my car was missing from my driveway, My first initial thought was that there is no way the cars is started and drove off. I called the cops and filed a report. 20 minutes later, a homeowner in my subdivision called the cop and said there is a car parked in front of his home. Guess what, that was my car! It was only a minute drive away from my home and it seems like the thieves tried everything to get it going, but failed. They are definitely not armatures since there are no damage to my car's exterior. They by passed the alarm and probably pushed my car out from my drive way. Now the dealership is fixing the car, but only to find tremendous challenges in getting it started. I've got Chuck to call them, and hopefully he will come save the day and get it running. Thanks a million Chuck. I sincerely thank you for your passion and what you do to help people protect their valued vehicles. Truly," - Alan Weng, Atlanta, GA

"Last August, I purchased my dream truck a 2007 King Ranch Edition Super Duty F-350 Diesel Pick Up. One Friday night in September, I went to Minute Maid Park to watch a baseball game with some friends. I parked in a lot that faces the main street on the south side of the stadium. To my surprise - when I came out - my truck was gone! I thought my buddies played a trick on me and somehow had a key made and moved my truck. I guess I did not want to face reality and realize that my truck was actually stolen. That is not supposed to happen to me. That was the stuff you only see on TV!  Like an idiot I drove around in the seedy parts of town looking for my truck for about 3 weeks. Around Thanksgiving time my insurance company paid me for my truck. I was told by a salesman that in February of 07 the new 2008 Super Duty Trucks were going to be out soon so I decided to wait for one. I went and special ordered almost the exact same truck. It was delivered at the end of February and was one of the first 2008's to arrive in the Houston area. I loved it! This one was a 2008 White King Ranch Edition Super Duty F-350 Diesel Pick Up. My insurance man read a story about your Ravelco device in a car magazine and had one installed in his new truck that he just bought. His last truck was also stolen. He recommended that I too get one. I called and had you install one on my new truck. I must say you did an excellent job installing it. It looked as though it came from the factory. Would you believe that this past Saturday night while at a Rockets game at Toyota Center someone tried to steal it? But this time THEY FAILED! They broke the door lock panel and the steering column but they could not get my truck because of the Ravelco! I was so happy that it saved my truck! When I came out of Toyota Center, I thought that maybe I left the inside dome light on when I left because it was lit, but the thieves left my door wide open. I will be your biggest salesman ever! My whole family is scared to death about having their vehicles stolen and will be calling you shortly." - William K, Friendswood, Texas
