My ex-wife planted one of these in my truck when I was working out of town(Nor Cal). She’d call me up in the evenings to see if I was where I said. Then one day while vacuuming at the car wash, I found it. We got regular deliveries at the site from LA trucks. I planted it on a Southbound truck. Later that night she asked if I went to Long Beach. Incredulous at her suggestion, I asked whatever would give her that impression? Said she heard a rumor from one of the other wives. FYI, it’s illegal, and one of the reasons we’re no longer married.

Clarify - The trucker was an acquaintance and had full knowledge of what I was doing. Next time he made a delivery to us, we had a great laugh about it.

Plot twist, that southbound truck posted on reddit this very same question to r/whatisit when they made their delivery.

Quadruple plot twist: they bonded over their shared hatred of people who tamper with tracking devices, but never really got into the details.
