Factory Alarm or Aftermarket?

My F150 arrived today, and I am picking it up next week. Will have lojack installed, but I think I also want an audible alarm as a slight deterent for stereo theives. Any recommendations on a basic alarm. What should the Ford alarm cost? I have the remote entry and keyless entry features

Viper makes at least one very nice combination alarm/remote starter/remote entry for a decent price. I've yet to install one, but I'm really big on the remote starter function. I think it was originally aimed at diesels, but gas trucks can benefit from a minute or so of warm-up before you drive away.

Thanks for your thoughts. I think I will get the Viper EPS with remote start and I am even considering substituting the Viper GPS tracker for the Lojack package
