Drop down hood! Hmm! Hide key! Hmm! Locked car door will not open to pull hood latch release. Hmmm!

I'll just activate my phone and unlock the door. Oops! Battery dead!

My Class A, diesel pusher has a drop down hood. Smallish opening on the front of the RV where I can access some of the dash equipment and the comfort control air pump and step cover manifold. Along with the dash AC equipment and water hoses for the dash heater. Oh, and the chassis fuse blocks and relays. No locks on that drop down hood. I have seen them with locks, mine doesn't have one. Also not necessary to be inside the RV to open it. I use it for storage too.

Very fortunate and good place to hide a key.

My coach is a 1 key fits all. I have one that is exclusively in the coach when we are camping. When stopped it comes out of the ignition and goes up next to the satellite dish receiver. That way I rememember to stow the antenna.

One complete set is in my pocket Another complete set is in he glovebox of the TOAD. The FOB to electronically open the coach door is attached to my pants belt. I'm just not sure how I could lock myself out of the coach.

It is an excellent idea to have a spare somewhere accessible, for sure. Several times coming down the steps these hand push down on the red lever and lock the door. First two times I was lucky as DW was still in the coach. Next time I had a spare. I've been lucky since and not clumsily pushed on the lever.

I personally do not trust thos magnetic key holders.
