I received this email at work today, and for some reason, Aldive popped in my head. I don't think this would work, but thought it'd be interesting for a little experiment. Let us know if anyone tries this.... :p

Locked your keys in your car ???? Did you know this??

If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone on your (or someone else's) cell phone.

Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the other person at your home press the unlock button of your key fob
(clicker), holding it near the phone on their end. Your car doors will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you.

Distance is no object you could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other "remote" for your car,
you can unlock the doors (or the trunk!).

Editor's Note * It works fine! We tried it out, and it unlocked our car over a cell phone!)

Mike's Note *

I locked the car had my youngest daughter call me while I was far away from the car. I clicked open into the phone and I could hear the car
doors unlock through her cell phone. My daughter confirmed that sure enough the doors opened.

Wow! Must try!

There's no "F" in "weigh".

I think me and SVO will have to try this tonight...especially since Reaper is parked for a few days. :(

Since I am home alone and unsupervised.. I just tried it. :D

Maybe Ford keyless entries are incompatiable with Nextels? :p

Maybe you need to have Jeff call you with a "special" call. :confused:

He told you about our special calls!? That bastard.
