    The glove doesn't have a lock, and the truck has no trunk obviously, so what is the point of a valet key?? I read on one post someone posted it can't open the doors but then how do they get your car for you after they park it? I'm confused :confused:

    Has to do with the programming. You can't copy the programming on the chip in the gray key, you can with the black ones. Something silly like that.
