The only thing funny is looking like an idiot with a tape to measure the range!
Just measured again, and got the same results!
And yes, I do have a 00 GS4, if that makes any difference!!

Someone asked if 2000 GS's are any better -- nope! My range is also poor. However, putting the key tip on my chin does seem to help with the range some.
