    Oh, I keep a spare on the truck, but it's in a hard to reach greasy spot. Much cooler and quicker to pick. Plus, I don't have a spare key for all the other locks I have to get around.

    I think my calendar is broken. Today has to be Friday the 13th. After getting back in my truck I went a 100 miles down the road. Did a Drop and hook in the company yard. Time to do another pre trip, Right. I didn't really feel the need to thup the drive tires since I replaced them One week ago. But its a pre trip so why not. I went into shock, one of the drives was flat. I was able to air it back up. Found the leak. It was was right at the edge of the tread and side wall. Took it to the tire shop. They said they couldn't fix it. Guess I begged them to try. They said they would break it down and see what they could do if any thing. They fixed it. Now I just have to keep an eye on it and hope it holds. What a day.

    I once had a Volvo with power locks. Never had any problems with it. This one is not power locks.

    Lock myself out an international in downtown Chicago. Had to called 2 other drivers and they tried unlocking it while I made the delivery. They couldn't do it and they started unloading my trailer to their trucks. Found those bail wire for the compactor and unlocked myself in 30 seconds......i carried a spare now

    Same happened to me few weeks ago. Door wasn't closed all the way so i was able to insert the wire thru the gap and open the window. It was also volvo and i thought it was impossible to lock myself out.

    Once i unlocked prostar with volvo key??!!

    And my old '99 century i could unlock with my house key.
