Interesting. I've owned four F150s, two Tundras, and a Ram, just in the last 20 years, and the cargo light didn't come on for any of them unless I turned it on, and it's less about it coming on than it is about it STAYING on. If any door is open, that light is on. For a company concerned with saving battery, that's just massively stupid. My battery warning takes 25 minutes, which would be tolerable if, again, it weren't so dumb.

That's what I've been doing, but I don't camp where other people camp, ever. My trucks are always the music source for often good-sized parties, and so I have to have the doors open. I'll know soon enough if the 2018s have "police dark" mode. If so, problem solved. If not, I'm hoping the fuses are specific enough to go that route. Thanks for the input.
