I am not sure if the AAA still does it, or maybe the insurance companies have it under the "lock out" clause, but it might be worth checking into it...
sorry elmo, we could not get your car started... at least, you got a new battery out of all of this...

Yes, a $260 battery that is useless because the key is shot. I just hope it doesn't cost too much from here on out.
Thanks for all the attempts to help me, I will let you all know how this ends up and how much it costs me.
