    It's great year round. You can make it an oven in the winter & an ice box in the summer.

    For GM it should still be locked & requires the key to operate.

    That's what is funny, you still need the key as this one isn't push button start.

    I remember back in the early 2000s when car alarms got fancy. My dad's buddy had that remote start feature. Sure makes it nice in the Arizona summers, walking out of the golf course can start the truck and have it not feel like a oven when getting inside

    My wife's pickup has remote start via the fob as does this one, but I had never once thought that you could now do it from your phone. I am curious if this can be used no matter where I am, as long as my phone and the pickup are in phone range. Or, maybe the pickup has to be within wifi range of the house?

    I guess I need to read up on this and learn how it works. I know the remote functions of the fob wouldn't have worked from my basement - at least I don't think so.

    That is pretty cool I never heard of an app either... my dad just put a new garage door motor on and I thought it was so cool he can control it from wherever by using his phone.. Also sends u texts overtime it opens and closes...it just needs to be hooked to internet and phone as well , but they don't have to be the same internet because he can open and close it from his office 35 miles away.... Wonder if the same can be done with your truck?
