have you been to a place where it was only VALET parking?

your valvestems are actually supposed to be bolted on there pretty good. i don't think it would be possible to get those off without removing the tires.... but then again the tires aren't bolted on either!

When I went to "The Park" up in Sac 2 weekeneds ago, they had Valet only for the parking lot. I self parked, went over to the Valet stand, gave them the keys and said "that's her right there under that big bright light, don't move her". They still moved the car to the parking structure across the street. I want as few people as possible driving my car, it was a nerve racking few minutes when they couldn't find my effing keys. All I could think of was 'Ferris Buellers Day Off'.

Thats not really true at all. I used to work Valet and we never stole anything, we drove rather aggressively at times, but never stole anything. And yeah, there are places like that, you can either go park your car somewhere, or tip the guys $20 to leave your car up front and take the key with you.

Valet is free for a reason lol. Maybe at a fancy restaurant that might be different.
If you had to pay for the service, it wouldn't be punk kids getting in and out of your car.

If I go anywhere that I know someone else will be handing my car I put it in Valet Mode on the AP and I take EVERYTHING out of the car before I leave the house.
Seriously though Spoolin, are you really worried that your VALVE STEMS are going to get stolen? I have yet so see a car be pulled up to the valet booth by the valet with no air in the tires I'd love to hear the explanation of that one though.

The BJ's restaurant in Cupertino used to be valet only up until a few years ago.
