Good tip for a newbie -


How many out there remember when you got only two keys to a car - one opened the doors and trunk, the other turned the ignition on? In the dark you could tell because one key head was rounded and the other was angular.

Back then we didn't have to:

* worry about FOB batteries running low

* wonder which FOB button to push to do what

* worry about a spare; the second set was simply wired up under the car

* be concerned about someone remotely skimming your FOB signal

* didn't have to pay the dealer hundreds of dollars for a spare key

* be annoyed by a big bulky thing in your pocket; just two small keys on a key chain

* by the time the keys wore out, it didn't matter because the lock was so worn that you could use a bent 8 penny nail to turn it

* what did I miss -
