I drove 1800 miles round trip this weekend with my switchblade key and did not die.

Applause, please.

But were you using the key as a knee pad while driving, because that's what it's there for...

240 miles a day for the last 2 months and I'm still breathing as well. Imagine that. haha

My car was in the shop last week (Mass air flow sensor decided to quit). The tech at the dealership asked me if I knew about the recall, I said I did and did not want the new key. He laughed and said good. They don't have any in stock and doesn't know when they will get them.

Dodged a bullet there, I'd say. It was just reckless to go out with the Camaro Deathkey.

Terrified today when I took my slightly dusty Camaro to the car wash. Might be paranoid but I swear they left 3 car lengths between my Camaro and the BMW in front of me. Other autos were only separated by one car length. Are the people at the car wash now afraid to drive my car because it still has the killer FOB? Should I tip more at the car wash because my Camaro is so dangerous to drive (Hazard pay)?

I think John Boehner is including "Camaro switchbladegate" in his law suit.

HOW DARE YOU GO OUT ON THE STREET WITH THAT DEATH FOB. YOU COULD HAVE KILLED SOMEONE. YOU NEED TO BE SPANKED BY YOUR WIFE, GIRLFRIEND, OR A STRIPPER.
