    Yesterday, in the rain, I was walking back to my car at the supermarket. I passed a woman holding her jacket over her head and pounding on the driver's side window, "Stephanie, open the door! No, not that button!"

    :lol:

    One really nice feature of the SKS is that you cannot lock your keys in the car. This is pretty funny when both my wife and I have our fobs and she leaves her fob in the car. We were pretty puzzled the first time it happened. :)

    I take it for granted these days and had some new friends in the car the other day. They were like "how'd you open the door?" "How'd you start the car". If only SKS was everywhere...

    When I was trying to decide what package I wanted, I looked mainly at the safety features. The SKS came with #7 in 2004, and I thought it sounded like a neat gadget but I wouldn't have gone out of my way to get it if it had been separate.

    Fast forward to...oh...maybe about a day after I got the car, and I realized that SKS was a MUST HAVE feature, just like VSC and airbags. I'll never buy another car without it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yeah. The night I came home with the car, I handed my husband the 2nd fob to put away somewhere in the house. He forgot and left it on the passenger seat, in the envelope with the sale paperwork he was also supposed to file. THAT one took me a coupla days to work out! :blink:

    I don't think I'll buy another HOUSE without it! :lol:
