Sure. That works. Just seems like you are going to significant lengths just to keep the keys in the truck. I happen to dislike the look of the keypad and never use it. Would never order a vehicle with it. The phone app does everything I need and much more than the keypad
Got the vault anyway, for other reasons. Plus I often hike with others and we generally separate. Whoever gets back first can get in. And most times I'm out in the boonies, so there's no cell coverage. If all I did was go to Starbucks, yeah, the keypad would be useless. And it isn't a work truck, where the pad is also useful, so I guess Ford decided to pinch some pennies. Can't say I blame them. I'm glad that at least it's available as an add on.
