Two Saturns, one key
 

When I bought my 97 SL1, it came with two keys. The ignition switch had
been replaced and the idiots who did it did not bother to have the switch
coded to the car.

Today, while doing some other work to the car which involved having one of
the door skins off, I decided to pull both door lock cylinders, the trunk
cylinder and the ignition and get them coded to the key to my 95 SW1. Now
one key works both cars. Locksmith charged $40 to recode the cylinders.

Back in the good old days I had a similar setup. My friends Dodge truck key
would open the door on my Volare and I didn't need a key to turn the
ignition so if I locked myself out I could just get him to unlock my door
and away I went. My anti-theft device was a kill switch under the dash and a
push button to replace the solenoid.

That costs extra money you know. Maybe they didn't have as much money
as you seem to have.

There are also disadvantages to having the same key for the door and
the ignition. A clever guy might have thought of that.

Little Tommy,

You shouldn't speak about your father that way...

He keyed the car to match out of love, and we know you filled the airbags
with beans be comfortable playing video games.

When the trailers a rocking, your picking your nose real hard - troll!

The dustman who has been classed as a lesser mortal than a ****ing
locksmith.
**** me! At least dustmen do something useful on a regular basis and don't
expect to be paid large sums of money for ****ing things up.

Dishonoured mudskipper intestine with bladder seasoning under dirty carp
abscess and jackal liver topping garnished with half-raw hippopotamus
gizzard next to blemished cadaver foreskins and opossum penis topping,
simmered in a splashing bucket overflowing with big medley of stomach in
festering gore, a side of fruit and a pint of pond scum.
