Jim in Idaho Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Never, never, never carry your keys away from your vehicle. A basic rule for all serious outdoor people. The keys accomplish nothing without the vehicle, so why carry them away from it? Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RONS DETECTORS MINELAB Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 I’m usually 30 or more miles away from cell phone service on my more remote adventures. A spare key is a necessity on the vehicle and a battery shutoff switch to keep door lights and accessories from draining the battery on multi day trips.

It is an equal nightmare scenario to come back after detecting and the truck is gone. I always have my keys with me and at a safe place in my backpack.

My wife’s crew left their lunchboxes under the truck for the cool shade, and I suggested that she leave the keys in one of them or put a flagging note on the steering wheel to remind her about the boxes before driving off. Well, they were all lined up neatly under the truck and she proceeded to run all of them over. She forgot my advice and I never said “I told you so”.

I also have a spare in my truck that is very well hidden. I can replace my glass for a lot less money then I can my keys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't suggest leaving them in the vehicle....dohhh. But, hide them nearby. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
