On my and a lot of other 3rd gens, we have the KEYLESS KEYPAD entrance....but nowadays is it ONLY remote enty? Did any 1st and 2nd gens have them?

 

my mom's jeep has that and I'd love it on my car... she literally has not taken the keys out of her ignition since the day she bought the car.

 

lol

I had that on my 2000 Ford Excursion, it was so nice! It wise nice knowing that you would never be locked out of your car (unless your battery died ) Sometimes you don't want to carry your keys, so you bury them in the center console and lock the doors. Very nice feature.

 

Some people can break windows you know?

 

err what was the exact purpose of the keypad? did you enter a number and it would unlock the door. Was that it's only feature? or?

 

You could open the trunk, fuel door cover, open windows...etc on my dad's Lincoln Towncar with the keypad. It was pretty dang cool...

 

yeah all my dads lincolns have it and he refuses to buy a car unless it has it. talk about old school. although he may get an m45.

 

that feature was good, but it was easy to crack, thats why they stopped making it

 

 

I always use mine

 

my mom lives in a town wayyyyy up north with only 2,000 for about 100 miles. If someone broke the window she'd know who did it before the glass hit the ground.

 

yep i use mine all the time. when i get outa the car, it's like an instinct now to press 9 on the pad to lock the doors.

 

Is the fact car makes are not putting door lock (key cylinders) in the right front passenger door on a 4dr car or SUV. Can someone explain that? What happen to those days when you unlock the doors for that girl (or guy, what ever your preference is ) on your first date, I guess now a days you just hit the button and all the doors unlock.

 

just makes our jobs easier.
