******new cars will have to require a revolving pin number to open the door*****

Or just use old fashioned ‘keys’!!!!! Like the ones attached to the fobs - to start the engine;) My old Jeep key does both = opens doors and starts the motor!

I use my key to lock/unlock; I carry the fob in my pocket in case I happen to lock the key inside.

Why, what a novel idea

How long has this been around?

Sarcasm, of course.

We continue to demand more and more leisure, to the point of having to have a beam of electrons to lock our cars for us as we walk away from them

I'm becoming more and more of a Luddite and the current generation appears to be getting lazier and lazier.

I bought a new Audi this past summer. There is no key-point on either the driver or passenger door. There is a key-point on the trunk, and I have this emergency key that could be used for that ‘path’, but being 60, I’m kinda wondering how I’d crawl over into the front compartment.

My Morgan roadster goes one better - no pesky door locks to keep people out (not to mention the lack of a roof (or 'hood', as the Brit's call it). It also comes with the latest in anti-theft protection - not only does it have a manual transmission, but it's right-hand drive as well. If a thief can overcome those obstacles, there's the fuel pump cutoff switch to contend with - and a manual choke if the weather is sufficiently cold as to need it.
