That is where the difference arises. If the other one gets to the car first the car cannot discern if they are on the left or right side, yet.

 

The problem is when you have the fob on the bench, start the bike, ride out and stop for gas somewhere - and you don't know the code.
thats when you call dad

 

Have to experiment with that. Haven't see it as an issue yet.
Today we took a ride, both had key fobs, and I always open-hold the door.
When I got in to drive all the settings were mine.

 

i understand, since mine is always in my pocket it is only a problem if i forget my pants.

 

lol that happened to me once too. I just so happened to have a pic of the code in my phone though.

 

Man, I still have manual locks and aftermarket-added power windows. I disabled the locking tailgate previous owner had added as it just got in the way. My Silverado won't even shift for me, I mean, come on! :P

It's going to be very weird having power windows and locks, and having the remote fob. Even the remote fob seems mostly pointless, I am already holding the key, I'll just put it in the door. Want to unlock the other doors? Hold it for a second longer. Apparently this key fob can roll the windows up/down, though, and _THAT_ is something I'm interested in.

Honestly though, I wish I could just get the key, I don't want to have to carry around the fob all the time, the "old-fashioned" metal key doesn't take crap for space on my keyring or in my pocket and doesn't have to have its battery replaced every once in a while.

 

personally i don't carry my key on a ring. Its all by itself...was raised that way Never wanted too much weight hanging off your ignition, plus that junk hitting you in the knee is annoying.

 

We had four cars until recently (all Fords) . Only two had key fobs. But you could not carry all four keys on one key ring. My wife tried and tore up the locking mechanism on her 98 Mustang. If you had newer cars you could not have four on one ring. I guess times are changing. Now we have two cars and only carry one key at a time.

 

Hmmmmmmmm............push button start?????? I thought Ford did away with push button start back in 1951 or 1952!!!!!! Progress is now regress!!!!

 

I think it has only happened a couple of times. I do the door thing about half the time. Not as reliable on the etiquette as I once was, but I'm just as good once as I always was.

I also wish the shut off for the seat retract was easier than data mining 2 menus. Whenever we take guests I shut it off because I always shut down and get the door for the rear passenger who is invariably stuck under the front seat when it trolleys all the way back.

 

You might be off by a few years. Our 57 Mercury Monterey had a pushbutton transmission and the start was on the neutral button. The buttons stuck our of a pod on the dash to the left side of the steering wheel and were about 3/4" square and had 2 inches of travlel. N/S, L, D, R and a big bar across the bottom to pull for park. Neutral was spring loaded at the bottom for the start switch. It was a cable driven affair which went down to the transmission. I remember the N/S got worn so it wouldn't make contact to start anymore so my father took an extension cord and a plug which was shorted. He would plug it in to activate the starter solenoid and then keep the plug in his pocket. Actually a very fast car with a 322 CID 290 HP Police Interceptor engine and a big Holley 4 BBL.

 

Ok!!!!! I will concede!! I forgot about that one.......I had both a 57 Monterey, and a 57 Turnpike Cruiser!!😀😎😄😀😎😄

 

Edsel also had a pushbutton transmisson

 

Bike isn't really "locked," it just won't start. But the fork is not locked and so it isn't really that hard to just roll it away into the back of a covered trailer and part it out...

I didn't order Security on my Road King Classic. The fob adds a convenience, but the H-D key is tiny, and its pretty easy to flip the lid of the ignition switch and lock that along with the forks.

 

Won't be a problem on the new Super Duty - which has a lot of room in the back seat. At my height, I usually have the seat pretty much all the way back anyway...so the feature is useless. I turned it off on the last Lariat I had.
