Some Garmin auto models do track, like my 750, but not that one. However, she would either need to have it on, or you would need it somewhere where it would get decent satellite signals, so that may be sort of obvious.

Web search “gps data log” (or logger, logging). There are some that can track up to a month on battery power or could connect to vehicle ignition system to track whenever the car is running.

A standard package will include the mobile tracking device, tracking software, and tracking service. Essentially, you attach the tracking device onto the desired object. Signals detailing its GPS coordinates are broadcasted at regular intervals. The signals are picked up by the tracking service provider and then fed to your computer, which has been installed with the tracking software. You then get on your computer a map showing real time movement of the object you are tracking.
