I brought home a bucket of chicken last night and carried it in the trunk to avoid having my new car smell becoming "ode de chicken". I left the trunk open in the garage to air it out and forgot about it.

The trunk light was out this morning but the car started fine and the trunk light came back on after I opened it again. Cool feature.

 

all the interior lights do that

 

Cool, another nice feature I didn't know about.

 

Yeah I knew about the interior (and the radio feature) but not about the trunk light ..... till I was loading up the trunk THIS morning in a dim garage... :-)

That's a great little feature.....

 

The headlights should also do this. Fords have been this way for a while, at least was in my 95 t-bird

 

The headlights do it too. Don't you just love modern day technology?

 

wait if i leave my headlights on the car will turn them off for me?

 

Anything electrical left on will be turned off thanks to the battery saver feature.

 

how long does it take to kick in?

 

I haven't timed it or looked it up, but w/o the key I can get a couple songs to play in the Shaker, so I say a good 15 mins or so.

 

My trunk light has a zero delay... it never comes on.

Way cool if the headlights go off after some "time".

 

not trying to show off or anything but in my 92 lexus ls400, if i forget to turn off the headlights, they turn off automatically once i remove the key, and thats one old car. ahh japanese ingenuity!
