I was Locked out of truck.

I locked myself out of a Freightliner. Saw another guy at the truckstop sitting in a Freightliner, so asked him if I can borrow his key. He laughed and handed the key to me. I unlocked my door and gave the key back to him. He couldn't believe it worked.

 

Jan 1989 fargo nd , temp somewhere around minus 20 I arrived home and parked in the driveway ...nobody home and I'm locked out of my truck and house , I got pretty cold .
Hasn't happened since !

 

Same with all of our old fleet FL's at my old job. Comforting, isn't it?

 

Freightliners used the 70’s-80’s style GM keys. You could probably find yourself an old Vette or Trans Am and drive off with it back in the day.

 

Where are you going to store it? I bought a hide a key magnetic box, and have a spare key in it attached to the frame. It's faster and cheaper...

 

If you drive a cascadia the keys are the same size as a dodge. I get my spare one made it walmart for $1.50 a piece. I have one on a lanyard, one in a zippered part of my jacket, one zip tied by my batteries. My husband has one in his wallet & one that stays in this jacket.

 

I did that the very first week I got mine. I was at Elk Mountain, Wy at the rest area. Luckily there was a driver parked next to me w/ the same year & model truck. It took about 5 minutes since my locks weren't worn in. After that I was paranoid and now I have lost of spares

 

Any more pictures of it?

 

Who eats a key?
