Once upon a time a family loved a car. The family also loved a key to that car. It was a grand key. This is the story of that family, that car and that key. It is a story of loss and love, frustration and relief. It is the story of paying way to much money to one lock company.

When my wife and I decided to move to the west coast with our one-year-old daughter, we needed a car. We hadn't bought a new car yet and we were quite excited to get one. With a little money to our names, we went out looking. We needed something that was safe for our new family and large enough to haul most of what we owned across country comfortably. We found the new Chrysler Pacifica was perfect.

We loved the car but, more than that, we really loved the key with all its wonderful features. It could start the car remotely, set the alarm, lift and drop the rear gate and even open the doors. This was a key that did it all and we loved using it over and over.

We had a great trip across country and the automatic start and lift gate came in so very handy with the kid and the luggage keeping our arms and hands quite busy. However, once we got to Hollywood, we lost one of our keys. Rather, I lost my key as my wife will tell you.

We went to Chrysler and found that the reason the key was so great was because it cost a fortune. It was $100 to replace! Well, this was ridiculous. We decided to go with one key and just switch off.

We got used to doing that and after a few years were over the loss of the key. Although, we didn't really like the key nearly as much anymore. Then one day it happened, the thing we dreaded - I lost the other key! Now we had none and would have to pay a fortune to replace them. We looked everywhere but to no avail. We called Chrysler and local Hollywood locksmiths who made these keys. It was now much more than the $100 is was a few years back.

We looked for days for that key determined not to spend the money on a new one but to no avail. We hired the Hollywood locksmith to save us from having to tow the car to Chrysler to get the key made. He was great and gave us two keys even though we paid for only one. The dealer would not have been so nice. Unfortunately, the locksmith keys did not have buttons to open anything remotely. Also, the set off the alarm and we had to start the car to disable it.

The moral of the story is. You may love a key for its features but don't forget those features have a price. A few days after we got the new keys made, our daughter presented us with a box she decorated for us and hid in the kitchen. They key was in it. We may not love that key anymore but we sure love her.
