Of course, now you have to wonder when you're sitting down somewhere that used to be out of range of your truck whether you're unlocking it accidentally or triggering the panic-mode horn "alarm."

It shows vehicle status.

GM (GM) plans to introduce a remote-control key fob next April that will allow drivers to not only determine the pressure in each tire, but also check the odometer reading, see if there's enough fuel in the tank to make it to work in the morning, change the radio station settings and see if they remembered to lock the car doors, to name a few.

Re: 2008 Key Fob?
I can hear myself saying it now:
"My wife washed my key fob and you want $300 for a new one?!?!?!?!"
Do you really need to know the air pressure in the tire of your H2 when you are sitting on the toilet in your home?
Personnally, I'll pass.

"GM says its two-way fob will cost less than $100 to replace if it's lost or broken. And it should be hard to break, Henderson says. For testing, it's been dropped, dunked underwater and sprayed with saltwater."

If you've got something that can poke those itsy little buttons then you've got other things to worry about.
