Finns are the shit. Take a look at the driving exams they have to take in order to be licensed...

The system in my car actually tells me when the batteries are getting low...but even when they die, you just pull the physical key out of the fob and use that.

Agreed. Love the AKE system in my car. Keys are either in my pocket or the cupholder at all times. I’ve gotten so accustomed to it that I’ve tried to start my wife’s car on several occasions without the key in the ignition.

This apparently happens at CES a lot too. Are they this brazen or just stupid?

Dude it’s Florida...

This is goood Kinja.

Bentley? My brother attended and had some interesting stories about the roads and drivers up there...

I have a fun one:

HEH I’ve seen this happen as well. It’s even better where it’s a COP in the breakdown lane - saw that go down on I-66 in NoVA.

Consider that SEMA likely gets a good portion of it’s yearly revenue from this show so they can fund their GR/PR activities...member dues alone don’t support thorough government relations efforts. So yea...it’s important.

You may want to source a few more of the steering wheel tilt motors so you have a stash for the next failure in a few weeks. Maybe a couple horns too :)

I’ve been doing this manually for years. Certainly not as effective, but has saved my car’s ass on a number of occasions.

While the ads are kinda annoying, I was with Geico for many years and had two incidents where I need to make a claim. Both times it was easy breezy and they did everything they could to make it right for me.

“that’s probably not even close to what you might think it’s worth, or even close at all to Blue Book value.”

I got really lucky...Bought a 2001 Mazda P5 used with 110k on the ODO, drove it for 3 years and got hit (totaled) at 135k on the ODO. Geico paid out more (about $500 more) for the car than I paid for it 3…
