Default Auto door-locking feature

First let me say that not having keyless entry with the truck after having it for years sucks!

Is there a way to disable the auto 15mph door locking feature? I have a quad cab, complete with two car seats in the back seat. Now I have to manually unlock all the doors (which i can't seem to get in the habit of doing!) before getting out so I can open the passenger door from the outside to get my daughter out of her car seat. With my 04 Intrepid, i could program it to unlock all 4 doors when i opened my door. Am I outta luck since i don't have factory installed keyless entry and the right CTM? Thanks.

Ya most you can disable it. Check the user manual to see how to. Or just buy an aftermarket unit. Some can be as low a $50. Some places will install for cheep too.
