    HEY, I added that you can buy a cover for your key fob. That blocks the signal, thieves therefore cannot get your code, Taco is then safe. BOOM.

    It is old news - but it's the narrow, specific focus on Toyota/Lexus vehicles that sparked my interest and my question.

    They would also have to bypass the code in the key that shuts down the injectors. It is possible with the right tools.

    I sit atop my bed toolbox for hours per day, clutching a battered Ruger Mini 14 in my sweaty hands. As I twang the CB antenna on the roof behind me, something catches my eye off to the side. No thinking. Just reacting. With fury and speed unexpected for someone as unathletic as I, I twist around and unleash a hail of 55-grain FMJ. As the well-worn rifle's op-rod clanks out its song amidst the arpeggio of earsplitting booms, I notice that the mystery sight was nothing but an Orange Crush can that had blown off a nearby picnic table and had since been reduced small shreds of aluminum.

    Taco defended.


    (In case my sarcasm wasn't obvious, I don't do this and neither should you. Always exercise proper gun safety.)
