How do you get into your car trunck?

Use your spare key? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif
Call CAA?
Use your handy crowbar which you use on night missions (break and entry http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif )

some cars will actually let you pull out the back of the rear seats and gain entry into the trunk. or you could learn how to pick locks. "no really officer this is my car. i just locked my keys in the trunk. honestly." http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yes, exactly ! I had to puff for half an hour disassembling rear seats. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon8.gif

We do have a spare key but that key is good only for opening car and starting the engine, not for trunk. As it was explained to me on this forum, it is called "valet key". To tal insanity, IMHO.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">That's funny...It took me a bit to figure out what that meant. I'm just so used to "Call Triple-A?" that I completely missed it.

Option 3: Use a cutting torch to remove a small portion of the trunk lid.

I think the valet key won't open the glove compartment, either (assuming you have a lock on it).

What do you call a male ladybug?

What hair color do they put on the driver's license of a bald man?

When dog food is new and improved tasting, who tests it?

When they first invented the clock, how did they know what time it was to set it?

Which is the other side of the street?

Why didn't Noah swat those two mosquitoes?

Why do they sterilize the needle for lethal injections?

Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle?

Why don't they call mustaches "mouthbrows?"

I once I locked my keys in my car. Called my brother-in-law who called a friend who brought a flexible shim with a slight hook on the end. Within 1o seconds, the door was open. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

Even though I saw this happen in the movies many times, I just didn't realize they could do it so quick.

Anyways, I do belong to CAA and wonder if CAA or AAA have a locksmith on staff or on call? I just assumed they did.

AAA, at least, just calls someone to come fix your problem/tow your vehicle. If they're not there in ~30 minutes, you can call someone else, and AAA will foot that bill instead. At least, that's how the premium plan works.
