this all reminds me of the time I took the keys out of a friends van. I turned the ign clear back (accesories was setup to where you turned it back from off), to accessories, and pulled the key out. He practically died when he saw the radio was on when he got back. We both prayed that the key would go in and turn, and it did. Go figure.

 

Reminds me of our old 87 f-150. We hardly ever locked it since it looked pretty rough, didnt need the key to start it. That proved handy quite a few times

 

when i learned about this i was offroad and my keys fell out going over some bumbs, and i had to look for my keys when i wanted to shut my truck off lol

 

well if u roll the longer the truck is running the more damage its going to do, i still use the worn out key because the copy i have unlocks the drivers side and starts the truck but wont open the passenger side or the gas door

 

doh I see what you meant about rolling it, I didn't think about the keys falling out. Never have had that luxury, haha..

 

Eh, one day I plan on installing a kill switch anyway ;-) That would come in handy somehow someway. Just gotta figure out HOW to do that.

 

I have keys that will unlock and start 65% of the toy trucks I have tryed them on

parts any one LOL just kidding

It is kinda of a bummer knowing that your truck isnt safe
if I can do it anyone can

well in the event of a rollover, which i hope never happens to me, my keys are likely to hit me or my passenger in the face.

 

maybe your passenger will have their mouth open at the time screaming or something and catch em for ya...

if i ever rollover I just hope I don't catch a toolbox in the face.. i got everyting wedged in and tied down pretty well but I'm still paranoid about that...

 

Thank god my truck is pretty much empty inside, only thing that could fall on my in the event of a roll over is..well.. myself.

 

Yeah, that is pretty bad too hehe... well I don't have a garage at our current house, and my wife owns a lot of stuff (or I guess it's just a small house ).. so I keep most my tools in the truck.. as well as fluids, and water and a sleeping bag and stuff. But I figure it could all come in handy out in the woods someday. I know the fire extinguisher isnt going anywhere.. got it mounted to the inside by the rear drivers side door.
