RE: Locking doors on a spider or any other for that matter



My Spider driver's door will open when locked if you yank it good and firm a
second time.  Just one of many things I love about the car.

Crazies sneaking into a vehicle should be discouraged, I agree.  I grew up
in Earth, Texas.  (Real place.  You could look it up.)  My parents didn't
know where the house key was.  Used to go on vacations without locking the
front door and usually left the car keys in the ignition.  Old habits die
hard, and even here in Atlanta I tend to leave my car unlocked much more
frequently than friends reared in more populace regions.  Have even found my
keys dangling in the ignition in the parking lot.  Don't like that.

Back in college days at Texas Tech (Lubbock, 60 miles southeast of Earth) I
once got into my car to find potato chip crumbs and sunglasses (cheap ones)
missing.  I surmised that a street person spent the night in my '70 Chevy
Nova.  Kind of creepy.

Wonder what kind of street person you'd find in Lubbock.  An unemployed
farmer?
