does our F150's have this neat feature??
I've been driving a 2004 Dodge quadcab loaner truck for almost a week now. Just realized tonight that the door locks will not "lock" with the switch if the key is still in the ignition. I thought to start with the switch was bad, pulled the key out and tried to lock once more and it worked. Double checked and realized this was a "feature" and not a "goof".
I hope to have my F150 FX4 back SOON, but until I do does anyone know if our trucks have this neat feature, which would really help prevent the embaresment of locking your keys in?

Easy "fix" for this going in somewhere and leaving it running problem ... get a two-piece keychain. I have one. The ignition key to my truck is on one end of it, and the keyfob (the black thing with the lock/unlock and alarm panic button) is on the other end. It has a quick-release button to separate the two pieces whenever you want to. Leave the truck running, disconnect the keyfob end of the keychain, get out, close the door, and press the door lock button on the keyfob. The doors stay locked when you do that. This, of course, is provided by the standard, Ford keyless entry system if your vehicle is so equipped.

4u2catch listen up! A lesson in keypad 101
SilverDrgn you are doing too much work messing with that silly clicker, unless you don't have keyless entry!
Here is what you do, leave the truck running shut the door, push both 7/8 9/0 on the key pad at the same time, LOCKED problem solved!
Just make sure you know your code to unlock it.
