kimbo305 posted:I remember seeing a 2008 Ford Focus at a car show and asking where the trunk release was, only to hear that it open by lock or keyfob, and nothing else. Somehow that seemed cheaping out more than having a trunk release and no lock, which isn't uncommon. But nowadays, dead battery aside, it's second nature to use the fob on cars. It's weird how expectations change. Weird, I have a newer Focus (13) as my daily and it has a button on the dash, a button on the fob, and a button in the hatch handle.

If you wanted to open the trunk with the car running, you had to turn it off, since you had to remove the key so you could open the trunk with it. I seem to remember some old Fords (late 80s early 90s) that had two keys, one for enclosures and one for the ignition.

InitialDave posted:It's apparently more than a little convoluted getting a car purchased and shipped out of Italy, their system really isn't geared up for the idea of a non-Italian buying something. Much like Italy, it works but for sort of not understandable reasons. You have to know exactly all the little ins-and-outs and it helps a lot to know Italian. It's not nearly as bad as people say that it is.
