>My 99 Prizm key would work for most all other Chevy Prizm cars. I know that this "cross keying" would work on quite a few different brands and models as well.

Back in the later 80s my parents had a Toyota van. One day my mom accidentally started it with her house key. We then realized that pretty much anything that fit partway into the ignition started it. Many years later the key got lost and we kept a screw driver in the cup holder to start it. It was a little odd driving around without a key in the ignition.... always thought cops would get suspicious.
