Do you have one of those remotes
for setting car alarm, starting car
and opening car doors from a distance? Unfortunately, my l998
Toyota just came with a simple key.
I agree, it is a great safety feature.
Ours has alarm and unlocks doors but no start function.You can buy them but I didn't think I needed it.Carole always sends these little goodies and some are quite good.
That is VERY good advice!
This reminds me of a funny incident that happened a few years ago. In the middle of the night, my husband and I both woke up thinking that someone's car was tooting. After talking about the dummy that wasn't shutting his car alarm off, we decided to investigate - low and behold it was a car sitting in our driveway. We had just acquired it from one of our daughters and hubby had put in a new battery that afternoon. Hubby ran out to unlock the car and open the hood and pull a wire (or something). By the time he got out there, one of the nieghbours two doors down was out there also. So there were 2 guys in their pj's having a visit after they got the honking stopped. I still wonder why I didn't grab the camera. Allan worked at the time at the Canola Crushing plant and the neighbour was has boss - he thought that Allan was working night shift and there was no way that I would know what to do to quiet things down. Funny.
