I too would love to open and close the windows with the fob, but from what I have read it's not even an option on the f-series.

In the Manual (page#64) it is under autolock & autounlock - "When your doors auto lock while driving, stopping the vehicle then switching the ignition off or to accessory and opening the driver door unlocks all your doors."
I'm not getting out of the truck my wife is,,, at the garage sale.. Been trying to teach her how to unlock her door... Thought this would be easier on me!! I just sit in the truck listening to the radio for the 15 minutes it plays and count how many times I have to repush the start button to keep track of how long she is there.. Can't see any relationship to how many pushes to how much junk or money spent..

You never know with the guys on this forum, you never could get rid of that double honk either but they found a way around it!

How about turning off the "Keep Hands On Steering Wheel" message? I'd love to kill that sucker!

Either I don't have that annoying message or it's turned off. I never have both hands on the wheel unless its winter and I'm warming them up

It doesn't really know how many hands are on the wheel.. What it does is let us know what kind of driver you are by posting that you never get it. In your case you are just average.. A smooth driver like srg963 or myself gets this message every few minutes. A average driver never sees it.. A BAD driver gets the coffee and take a break warning! But most of the time they really need a "get of the dam phone warning"..

Hahaha, now I have to try no hands to see if that pops up! I have let go of the wheel checking my alignment,seems to go straight so maybe I didn't have them off long enough.
