Arkansas
:roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao:
Arkansas, it's kind of just the pirate version of Kansas. Right?
Kansas & Arkansas... I can't figure the difference out.
When all those cars came without keys, I was wondering how people would get in, if the battery was dead.
They call the Ford dealer. Or have it towed here. Sometimes I would go to them, with a wedge thing, and a big long crooked metal rod, pry the top of the door open, with the wedge, then violently insert, and rape the crack in the door with the metal rod, until I could hook the handle. Not a pretty thing for the owner of the car to watch.
and either way, towed, or service call, 200 bucks and up.

I had to drive my friends Town & Country last night.
It has that same thing.
Keys are really coming to an end, aren't they?
somewhat. VW has the "Kessy" system, which is keyless entry and ignition, but if it fails there is still a key for both
A friend has a Cadillac CTS, it unlocks when you get close to it with the key. Then you just push the start button when you're inside.
You just keep the "key" in your pocket at all times.

My wife's Nissan has a fab type "key" but also has a physical key built into the fab in case of battery failure.

A key fob is a generally decorative and at times useful item many people often carry with their keys, on a ring or a chain, for ease of tactile identification, to provide a better grip, or to make a personal statement. The word fob may be linked to the low German dialect for the word Fuppe, meaning "pocket", however, the real origin of the word is uncertain. Fob pockets (meaning 'sneak proof' from the German word Foppen) were pockets meant to deter thieves and a chain was used (called a Fob Chain) to attach to items, like a pocket watch, that you would place in them.

And I just found this...
The word fob is believed to have originated from watch fobs, which existed as early as 1888. The fob refers to an ornament attached to a pocket-watch chain. Key chains, car starters, garage door openers, and keyless entry devices on hotel room doors are also called fobs.
Can we just call them keys?

Isn't it called a fob, because it is a programmable "Frequency Operated Button"?
