Almost the only way I ever started my ‘69 VW bug. One damp winter day in around 1990 I was in the local mall parking lot and there must’ve been a dozen people with their hoods up getting jump started, I guess the combination of temperature and moisture was really problematic that day. I’m sure anyone looking at the rusty, mismatching paint Bug was thinking “yeah, like this is gonna start”. Drop the handbrake, roll down the hill and “hasta la vista suckers”! 😂. Our house was also on a slight hill so I could coast out at night and be well away from the house when I started it so I could sneak out quite easily.

I would never own a push start vehicle. I don't even like having a chipped key. They keep making everything more complicated & computerized, so they can charge more money for it. I had to replace a valve stem on my tire & they said it would be $90, or I could get a traditional valve stem that doesn't activate the "low tire" light for $16 including installation. Since I'm not a drooling idiot, I went with the $16 valve stem. Now my "Low Tire" light never shuts off but, also because I'm not a drooling idiot, I can figure out when my tires are low without the warning light.

I used to work at a packing house and one guy who was on a forklift had an old Ford tractor with a bin trailer in his way so he turned the key and it didn't even crank over so he assumed that the battery was dead. So he pushed in with the forklift but he left it with the key on, throttle on, and in gear. The tractor moved itself out of the way and kept going and going, straight to a giant stack of brand new pallets. He got it stopped in time but could have easily gotten hurt or killed. He didn't know about the starter button.
