Same here. I only have the truck key on mine- it has the built-in remote on the key so it's pretty bulky all by itself. I carry a small backpack to work that has another key ring with my tool box, shop, and door keys. I finally got my wife to trim her keys down to her car key and door key, and carry her other keys in her purse. She thought I was kidding her about all that weight on a keyring being bad until a friend of hers had to have her key and cylinder replaced and her mechanic told her it was because of her keyring.

I just smile when I get a car at work with 3 lbs. of junk on the ring.
