Never ever ever, under any circumstances question motherly advice. I'm only 18 and recently moved to start out my own life, forge my own path, etc. For my 18th birthday my mom got me a triple a membership. At first, I thought that was the worst present anyone could have gotten me. But, she insisted, one day you'll need it, and you'll thank me for it. Tonight was that fateful night. I locked my keys in my car. I had forgotten about my triple a membership when out of desperation I looked in my wallet for anything, and there it was, my triple a card. I called the number and not even 20 minutes later, a man was there to break me into my car, free of charge. I guess what I'm trying to say is thanks mom.

Moms rule. Grandmas are even better. Best advice I received from Grandma?? "It takes 2 to argue." Seems strangely simple, yet it is very complex. If only the other guy in the arguement would think of that a STFU. 8)

Yeah, it's amazing how many times lately the, "You'll thank me for it later"s have been true. I wish I woulda known it back then.

I never thought about making an extra key. One of those, "I'll never lock myself out" things, just didn't think I'd need it. However, thanks for the advice.

Do you have keyless entry? Fun trick that I learned....give your other keyless entry pad to someone else. Should you lock your keys in your car, call that person. If they hold their phone up to the keyless entry and press the unlock button, and you hold your cell phone up to the car, the car will unlock. Sounds nutty, but it does work.

I so have to try this out......and your right does sound a little nutty
