When you go out of town?

Before I had a fob, I carried a second car key for 10 or 20 years, but I
stopped a while ago. I have a spare housekey and carkey buried in my
yard somewhere, but I've never trusted magnetic keyholders for cars. I
thought either it would fall off or someone would find it, since there
are so few good places to put it. So I carried the dupe in my pocket.


My car has a keyed door lock and no ignition rfid or resistor so I had a
key made for $1 and wired it up under the car.


That's a good idea too.

Yah, I have gotten dirty


I'm already dirty.

crawling under the car to find and unwire the key but it is in a safe place.
