But, the summers here are unforgiving. Stepping right into your car on a hot day (can't leave your windows cracked in this city, no difference anyway) will have you drenched in a matter of minutes while your a/c kicks in. I'd much rather start my vehicle up from somewhere the a/c is blowing cold. Then walk right into my ride and go with no hiccups. If that's lazy, fine. But i'll stay dry everywhere I go in this city!

I am from Buffalo, NY - Do you know what kind of snow we get out there!? I have been out to the midwest and when it is below zero for two months my car does not ever get to a normal temperature, and its a 2005! It is not a matter of laziness- it is a matter of ELEMENTS you shallow minded man. You are clearly from somewhere warm and without snow, because you think that people use these to avoid using their keys?! What sense does that make! It was designed for people in cold temperature probably BY people in cold temperatures. Ugh who let YOU write this critique! Seriously, I agree with the last two people.

Perhaps you have never woken up to a car covered in 4 feet of snow, which could take well over an hour to thaw before you would even DREAM of trying to get an ice-coated door open. Lazy? No. Spend a week in Montana in January, and you will resend your snyde remarks. Oh, and by the way... there are still many places where cars don't get "hacked" into on a daily basis. Im guessing you are from So Cal. You need to get out and see the world a little bit. Mr. Gomez…
