    Howdy y'all, first time long time blah blah asdfhjklsdfjkl... :)

    I just got a new 2019 ACLB and I'm wondering why the tailgate lock cylinder functions are rotationally opposite of the driver's door?

    A shitty Dodge truck I used to have was this way and I think my '06 Tacoma was too. What's the reasoning?

    Understood, but once you go remote you can never go back. My 1st Gen remote stopped working after I tore out the shitty aftermarket alarm. Hard to get used to manually opening.

    It seems the only standard features are the ones that are mandated by law like safety and back up cameras.
