Kevin was like "Un, how'd you get the Jeep out without the XLR moving?!" Heather's boyfriend suggested I just push it out of the way with the Jeep.

Ultimately figured out that never using the key means the cylinders will gum/freeze up over time. Combine this with a worn key and no go. Had a new key cut based in the VIN and spent several days spraying cleaner/lubricant into the cylinders. The doors now open with a key if necessary, the trunk is still a no go.

Interesting. I did read on the XLR forum that WD40 might help the mechanism work. I used that, but (as they also said), it took two of us to get the trunk up, one to turn the key and the other to actually lift the trunk lid.

My favorite story about the Jeep centers around duck hunting... we had a blind down in a hole and the Jeep was parked about 60 yards away up on the bank. Cousin draws a bead on a wood duck and unleashes a 3 inch magnum size 4 lead shot round right through the grille, radiator and windshield of the CJ. Killed the duck, and his vehicle in one fell swoop! We still laugh about that.
