A doctor my wife used to work for lives on an acreage about a mile out of town. Some years ago, my wife ran out of gas by his place. No one was home, but his pickup was parked with the keys in it.
So-my wife used his pickup to go get some gas and then parked it back where it had been. The next time she saw the Doc, she said, "Thanks for letting me use your pickup last week".
He replied, "No problem. That's why I leave the keys in it".
That pickup had an interesting ending. I was a salesman at the local GM dealer at the time, and shortly after my wife borrowed the pickup, the Doc traded it to us for a new one. As a matter of routine, we sent the pickup to a detail shop. It had a nice cab high shell on it, and the squirrel that owned the detail shop packed up all his stuff and disappeared with it.
This was in March, and in December the guy got busted for DWI in Phoenix, AZ, still driving the pickup with our dealer plate on it. By then the insurance had paid us for the pickup, so it was between him and the law.
