    I wonder if there is a mod, so when I go the Drive the doors lock? My 2004 Camry does......

    Thanks

    I'd love it if our trucks did that... my last 2 vehicles had the option of locking the doors in either park or drive... I was dissapointed that the Tacos don't have it...

    I don't see the point being that the second you open the handle on the inside, the door opens regardless if it's locked or not.

    I work in the Houston Texas area and I just wished the doors locked automatically like my wife's Camry. Some parts of town are a little questionable while sitting at a stop light.

    I don't mind hitting the button when I remember to do it.

    Exactly, I work in a sketch part of town, and some of the roads I drive on have some interesting characters...

    I always forget to lock the doors, I wish it was automatic...

    get an alarm that does it?

    I don't remeber if my 05 locked before my alarm (got it the 1st week)
    but now when I start the engine(doors closed) it locks the doors. Clifford 5.1
    also If I close the doors with the engine running and nobody in a seat they unlock so I dont lock my keys inside. I don't know if it just does that tho.
