    I am curious if anyone has thought of a remote start alternative?

    Where if the system does not detect the key fob for a given period of time (5, 10, 15 minutes) the ignition could be killed. Is this even possible with a pre-wired modular between the ignition and transponder and receiver?

    Why would you want this?
    Why not just a security system?

    My remote start shuts the vehicle off after 20 minutes if no one enters with the key fob.

    I don't know if any of us are, but it sounds silly.
    OP, you info has a second generation Tacoma, did you upgrade, or are you in the wrong forum?

    Remote starters can be programmed to turn off at 7, 15,20 or 30 min. Default is 15.

    They don’t get any cheaper than $160 unless you want problems with your 40k investment for treating nickels like manhole covers.
