My car presented me with an interesting (and stupid) little 10 cent problem today. I stopped at a fast food place for lunch and went through the drive through. Because of the jeans I was wearing, I had to unbuckle my seat belt to get my money out. Anyway, I bought my food and was preparing to leave and I could not buckle my seat belt. The belt buckle would not go into it's receiver. I had to drive home with no seat belt. When I started to investigate I realized that a coin had fallen out of my pocket and fallen into the seat belt buckle. What a royal PITA; it took several tools and almost 20 minutes to get that stupid little dime out of the seat belt buckle. Be careful digging through your pocket with the seat belt unbuckled.

Have Fun!

Also, don't eat nuts while in your car, at least when sitting on the front seats.
If it falls between the seat and center console, it's hard to get them out of there.
