I would have loved the element because gas mileage is so much better - but I'm also carrying lots of dog equipment like cages, jumps & other obedience things. Trust me - my Pilot is loaded to the gills when I pull out of the garage!Originally Posted by sundial
Huh?
I load my 88 lb gsd, my 75 lb gsd and 70 lb aussie in it (and at one time another 80 lb gsd) and away we go--including hubby in the front and doggie stuff in the back.

Last winter my husband lost his car key on the mountain while snowboarding. I wasn't with him at the time and it was a several hour drive from home during a storm.
I had to use this fancy FedEx same day service which cost a fortune to send him my key. It was also very expensive to replace when we ordered it from the dealership.
Believe me, I feel your pain.

You don't call him. You submit the estimate to your insurance company and they work it out with his company. Originally Posted by Tuckervill

Yeah, I can do that. I probably should do that. Coward's way out.
The guy was nice about it, after he realized he was caught. He wasn't going to leave a note or anything, just drive away. I told him I'd call about it, and I like to keep my word, but he'll prolly be ticked when he sees the estimate, since it is so high.
Off to State Farm I go!

Chip keys
Ah, chip keys, the bane of my existence. 4 of our work vehicles use them. You can only make 9 copies before the whole system has to be reprogrammed. And of course, a couple of the drivers are feuding and the keys always disappear. I would knock their heads together if I could get away with it. I am so not looking forward to our new vehicles, which will use a remote.
One practical fix is to carry a "mechanical" (unprogrammed) key on your ring or stashed somewhere. That way, if you lock the keys in the car, you can still get in.
Check your owners' manual. With the work cars, it takes two working chip keys to program another.
