Great News! Glad we could help. I think we should all have any emergency compartment under the truck somewhere with a wood chock and a giant ruler just in case. That or simply a spare key!!

I keep a spare computer with a direct link to the Blazer Forum in a secret compartment under my bumper for just these kind of emergencies.

LOL well yea I thought about creating like a magnetic box wiht a wood chuck and a giant ruler that would magnet to the chassis and would be a lifesaver! lol... But yes the spare key idea is a good one not gonna lie.

Chevy lovers idea is great. [sm=funnypostabove.gif][sm=laughat.gif]

In my town you can just call the police and they will come unlock it for free. Gotta love small towns.
My oldest locks himself out at least once every 2 months. He just doesnt have time to get a spare key made, or so he says everytime I nag him about it.

On my '00, it wont let you lock the doors with the key in the ignition and the door open. [sm=lockeddance.gif]

I got locked out of my vehicle once and that was enough for me. After that I decided to always have a spare key inside my wallet just in case such a situation should arise, and believe me it has happened more then once.

the keys in the wallet trick have always worked for me except that one time where i was wearing pants w/o back pockets and my dumbass kept it in the truck. i was 45 mins from home and drunk, all i wanted was my apt keyswhich where in there as well plus it was winter so i wanted to get alittle warm.. and u can imagine how a cop wont help a drunk into his running but locked vehicle. so again i am the master at this, i let the concrete laden sign post fly straight through the pass window. i call it "christening my vehicleunder the eyes of me." but its ok because i have a piece of plexyglass thats fitted perfectly and the junkyard guys are starting to know me for other stuff as well, so 50 bucks and im out the door with a new window

First thing that goes on every vehicle I buy is a spare key in a magnetic box, usually within 24 hours of the purchase. And I also have at least two more keys made for it that stay in a drawer in the house, tagged with the vehicle's ID.

Spare keys at $2 a copy are very, very cheap when they're needed.
