re: the keypad- it’s the single car feature that I’ve done the hardest 180 on after hearing about its purpose. I’d thought they were ugly as sin (to say nothing of the security risk) but then someone told me that I could lock my keys in the car while at the beach instead of stuffing them in a sock under a towel in the…
