This autounlock feature remains active for 10 minutes after stopping. I want my doors to unlock when I put the truck in park and the truck still running, because if I hop out to get something it doesnt unlock unless I kill the truck.
You know I just realized something. This must be a new safety feature to eliminate carjacking because this weekend I was riding with a buddy in his '15 Silverado. The doors stay locked no matter in park or not. Even as a passenger you have open the handle 2X from the inside so it will open.

Here are some cool features we have they don't :

1) keyless entry keypad
2) automated locking tailgate
3) full panel moonroof
4) huge backseat area
5) bed cargo light button
6) 12v accessory port kills power after 20 minutes
7) customizable LED lighting inside
8) customizable MyTouch wallpaper
9) perfect gun holster clip area below steering wheel for CCW (no additional equipment needed)
10) open tailgate from keyfob or keypad

See, I'm all for this truck. Just a few things make no sense why they aren't available options.

Ha! It's perfect for a radar detector. What are you using it for?

12volt cooler,, needs to be precooled and kept running while at store for longer than 20 minutes. I think 60 or 90 minutes would work for both of us.
And still protect the battery.

Again, with all of the technology out there, we should be able to control this, as well. But I don't want anyone to get butthurt for us making suggestions....

If you put your seatbelt on before you turn the key, no chime.
But i'm one who never put on my seatbelt until I'm already rolling, so it would be nice if there was a way to turn it off permanently like the regular seat belt chime.

Hahaha!! I've had 3 TJs, and loved everyone of them. That's a Jeep, and what makes it cool about it. These are "luxury trucks" so-to-speak. I'd take my jeep anywhere but not this truck.
