My new truck is the first vehicle I've ever had with the silly remote locks
and a chip in the $200!! key that has to be there to start the darn thing

My wife came up with the idea, that since while fishing I unintentionally
immerse myself a couple times a week in some hat floating version of the
FullReid that my new KEY is in danger ... ( I've ruined a couple cell
phones ) ..... anybody know if there is any truth to this? she admits that
she just made it up, but it seems it could be true?


Do I need to find some sort of waterproof key container ?

hostage )


PS it has a tire pressure sensor thingy that beeped and displayed a
warning icon every time I started it ... so I took it to the dealer to check
... the 'mechanic' came out with TWO laptops, a couple wiring harness
hookups and magic remote digital air pressure gauges as his 'tools' ... I
doubt they have a wrench or screwdriver in the whole damn shop G


Two solutions:

1. A good ziptop baggie. I have used one successfully for car key
and camera, and have pulled more that a few Full Reids with no damage
(to the camera or the key, that is!).

2. Hide it at your vehicle. A place often used by me is atop one of
the tires. They also make a magnetic key holder box (small) that can
be attached just about anywhere on your truck. Should be able to find
it in any automotive store, or just buy a good magnet and use a small
baggie.
