Stranded

Everything is gravy. The dealership sent a tow truck my way last night about 80 miles out. I've asked around and I'm almost 100% sure that it is the steering wheel locking solenoid like quagmire87 says. After stopping the engine, the steering wheel didn't lock as it normally does and it wouldn't even let me go into accessory mode to put my windows up. I tried disconnecting the battery like Kellyefields recommended and also tried docking the key fob in the "FOBGINA" as NickTurnon put it. I'm already glad I purchased the extended warranty as I haven't even owned the damn thing for a month and I'm already having issues. Thanks for the advice guys. It looks like I'll be driving a Sentra for a little while.

David, I think we have a mutual friend, Jayson. My brother said he saw three of the sickest Z's the other day in BTR and I asked him if one of them had painted rims and he confirmed it. He also commented on how crazy slammed your ride is and on the negative camber. Props to you.
