Cool I have to remember keys now?

Geez, that's asking a lot. Since I never need a set of keys for a car anymore I take for granted that I still need keys for other things. I left my house keys on the kitchen table and I am now locked out of the my house and unable to lock the door at work for the weekend. But hey, I can drive!

Nope, leave the FOB in the pocket of my purse - I never need to take it out. Since I don't need a car key anymore it's easier to run out of the house without house keys.

Some of us (men) don't have purses, so we have to depend on the pockets of our pants! +G

Does the fob not give you the option of attaching a key ring, or is it too bulky? Pardon my ignorance, but I'm still in the dark ages .

Yes it does, you can attach a small ring to the removable emergency key inside the fob. I did that and then attached it to the ring with my other car key on it, so I just have to pick up ONE key as I go out the door.

Now ... if they'd just figure out how to get the car locked again, without digging in my pocket for the fob, I'd be in Lazy Driver Heaven LOL

I put one of those keypad door knobs going from our garage into the house.
Don't need keys at all now(until the battery goes dead in the door knob)

Option, yes, but WHY?? :-) I even took the split ring off the fob. I see no reason to get the fob out so I can lock and unlock my house.
