worn down key!?
OK, here's what happened. I go to start the truck tonight, and my key won't turn, the ignition is completely locked. Locksmith comes out and completely rebuilt the ignition right on the spot. He said it was because the key was worn down (comparing it to my backup key for door locks). So have any of you heard about this!?
The 'worn' key is on the left, on the right if a key I purchased 2 years ago.

hahaha, yeah
and stop keying all those cars that park in "your" spot... Or scraping up stuff on the sidewalk.
Seriously though. How does a key wear down that fast? I used to own a POS 93 toyota, and that thing still had bumps on the key at least.
wow. I wonder how much they saved by going with tin foil.

I know keys arnt the strongest things in the world. I have seen a few break inside door locks and such. But I havent seen one wear down quite that fast. His truck if only what? 5-6 years old? tops?
They look like 2 different keys now. (and they do look different, just by looking at the botton...)
