Default 2nd copy of car keys and fob?

micky posted for all of us...



How many of you carry a 2nd copy of your car keys and fob, when you're
in town?

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.


It depends on the car regarding keys and fobs.

I would not hide it behind a license plate. If they want to steal the car
they will switch plates and find the key.

I have newer cars and keyless start with fobs. I haven't really thought
about losing the key/fob. You just gave me agita worrying about it.
