Automatic Mirror Folding

My 2016 Laramie Longhorn has more magic than a Boeing 787 and wonder if there is anyway to program the side mirrors to fold/extend automatically on startup and shutdown.

Wouldn't that be nice? Another upgrade would be disabling the the garage door opener buttons when the engine is off or when the key isn't nearby.

Have you tried sitting in the truck with the key out and doors locked/ security activated and after waiting about 60 seconds, then press the garage door button?

Page 230 of the UConnect manual for the 8.4nav says if its available its on the touchscreen but it doesn't say what menu its in. Sorry, its not an absolute answer but it might be available to you.

No, what I have done is unlocked the truck while it sat in the driveway to get something out of it, then I go into the house. Later in the day, without having the key on me, I went out to the unlocked truck and while in there, used the garage door opener to open the garage. Keys are in the house still.

This seems to be a security issue. The garage door buttons should be disabled when the key is not recognized in the area.

And yes, I do try to remember to keep my truck locked, especially when I'm away from the house without it. But if I forget (I do suffer from CRS occasionally), I don't want some scumbag checking my truck, finding it unlocked, and then opening my garage door which gives him access to the house.
