<p>The tractor supply winch remote has gone up a little since I
bought mine.... Here it is:

When pulling a tractor or other rolling stock out of a place and
loading it, I can usually stay on the equipment and drive it as
it winches.<br>

<p>I've come out to my
Jetta to find the trunk at the minimum
unlatched. Not a good thing when tools are
in there. My biggest peeve is honking the
horn or beeping when one locks and unlocks
the car. Flashing lights are plenty. Blind
people aren't usually going to be driving
and require a blasted horn to let the know.
First thing I had the dealer disable. No
longer user do-able. Pure noise pollution.
If I don't know if I've locked my car then I
shouldn't drive. Oh and nothing as fun as
having something in your pocket set off the
panic alarm. <span style="font-family:"Segoe UI Emoji",sans-serif">😐</span>
Not able to disable that little 'feature'.
Both my Jetta and my Ranger have this bonus.

<p>> The only real

the electric <u></u><u></u></p>
<p>> remote controlled
side doors and the rear liftgate. you can
open them <u></u><u></u></p>
<p>> with the key fob
that also can remotely start it. The real
problem is <u></u><u></u></p>
<p>> that it is too
sensitive. It takes 2 pushes of the button
to operate <u></u><u></u></p>
<p>> the features, but
they will work inside a building 500 ft
away. Right <u></u><u></u></p>
<p>> after we got it,
I was inside a building and my wife was
sitting in <u></u><u></u></p>
<p>> the car at the
end of the parking lot.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p>><u></u><u></u></p>
<p>> Suddenly the rear
gate opened........ I have not carried
the fob <u></u><u></u></p>
<p>> since. I got a
couple of RFID pouches to carry them in but
they are <u></u><u></u></p>
<p>> too bulky to fit
in pockets. You can never be sure if the
doors will <u></u><u></u></p>

There should be some way to turn off the key
fob......<u></u><u></u></p>
