But, something happened when I grabbed the key. I won't give away any details about the encounter (don't want to spoil the fun for anyone else). Basically I got dropped to the world map (

Don't misinterpret this post as whining! I'm not mad at all. However, I think I want to tell others that it might not be a good idea to spend a lot of time in the encounter in the event that something like this might happen to you. I had to wait around at times due to needing some first aid and being woefully unprepared for the encounter in terms of weapons. One of the most tragic things about this entire situation is I was using a lockpicker and could have almost definitely picked the truck and drove it away immediately, but I wanted the key (to increase resale value on the forums).
