Touch lock feature
Hi, pretty sure I already know the answer to this but is there a setting to where you can lock the doors via remote or touch if all the doors are not closed?
My wife's cayenne has this and its great, I can get out and touch the door handle and it will lock the doors once everyone is our and doors are closed. I'm usually first to get out and it annoying to have to wait until everyone's our and doors closed before i can lock the car.

A minor inconvenience but completely understand why a person would want the doors to auto-lock after the last person exits and closes their door. Drivers are usually to first to egress while children usually come dead last! I guess single RX drivers wouldn't have any need for this function! 
Then again, why would any person who's single need an RX?

Never thought to use the door switch on the way out. I'll try that next time.
I believe hitting the trunk button will do what i need but 99% of the time I'm not in the trunk.
I'm not single but why wouldn't a single person have an RX? its a great SUV.

You must be brand loyal because Toyota is the only brand I've encountered that has this **** poor programming. All my other cars, I press lock when everybody has the door open and the car confirms locked after the last door closes. Is it a live saver? No... But does it cost Toyota anything to have some decent programming? Also no...
