Disable auto door lock?
I know it seems like a weird thing that annoys me, but I dislike that the doors automatically lock on my truck when it hits approximately 5 MPH. Is there some way to disable this feature? I hate having to unlock my truck when I get out if I need to get into the trunk area (to unload groceries, for example) or into any of the other doors.

On my 2005, the keypad deactivation did not work. The procedure below did deactivate the auto-lock.
You must complete steps 1-7 within 30 seconds or the procedure will have to be repeated. If the procedure needs to be repeated, you must wait 30 seconds.
1. Turn the ignition key to ON.
2. Press the power door unlock control three times.
3. Turn the ignition key from ON to OFF.
4. Press the power door unlock control three times.
5. Turn the ignition back to ON. The horn will chirp.
6. Press the unlock control, then press the lock control. The horn will chirp once if autolock was deactivated or twice (one short and one long chirp) if autolock was activated.
7. Turn the ignition to OFF. The horn will chirp once to confirm the procedure is complete.
Pressing the power door UNLOCK/LOCK button again will toggle the Autolock/Relock states.
Turn ignition to OFF to exit programming.
