Vehicle Keys - Key Fobs - Locked Out
I bought a Chrysler Aspen about 2 weeks ago and only got one key and fob in the sale. Yep, you guessed it, yesterday I was changing the transfer case fluid and had my keys lying on the seat. I guess...

This is precisely why I enjoy Ford's keypad on the door. Never have to worry about locking my keys in the truck and best yet I can leave my truck running with the doors locked and simply use the keypad to get back into my truck.
I agree. I have the key pad on my 04 Ford, and in my opinion the key pad is a very strong reason to consider a Ford or Lincoln product. It is great, and the pad still works great after 12 years of use.
To answer the question of the OP, yes, a hardware store can make a key to just unlock the door. I had a few of these made for my 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan for a couple dollars each. But, regardless, if you only have one key fob, that is very risky if you ask me. We had two key fobs for our Dodge and my wife lost hers a few months ago. I was very nervous only having one fob. Dealer prices were crazy high, so I ordered two online (forgot where) and had a local locksmith shop program them for me. All vehicles are different. Sometimes you can do the programming yourself, depending on the vehicle, but in my case, I had to have a locksmith do it.
