Since the pre-loaded locator doesn't work, the only way that might help is the "Tower Trangulation" from your provider if the phone is in use. Even if the SIM card is changed, the IMEI number of the phone is unique.

Because you are on this site I guess it is okay to assume you have a nextel phone. Sooo, call nextel and ask them to activate their GPS Tracking. You will then be able to see the AREA that your phone is in. Maybe you will spot your truck. Nextel's Mobile Locator is NOT free and NOT always accurate. Better hurry before your bateery dies.

Is it legal to locate a person by triangulation? I found a service called
ICU and they claim to be able to PING any phone and get it's location. How are they able to do this?
