[QUOTE="gonefshn, post: 317489, member: 380"] One of the things I hate about my newer GMC pickup with the push button start is that it's remote will only run for 10 minutes, if you physically start the vehicle and leave it running it only runs for 20 minutes, and if you're in it and letting run (ice fishing out your door) it automatically quits after 40 minutes. They say it's for safety reasons since with the push button starting you might accidently leave it running. Well last night while watching the Bucs beat the Chiefs, one of my friends there said he just found out if you put it in neutral and then put the parking brake on it will keep running. Tried it today and he's right! But how in the hell is leaving it running in neutral with the parking brake on safer than just letting it run in park like you would with a key starting one? Was also told if you hold the start button for 5 seconds without hitting the brake it puts it in a mode that will keep the radio on without it turning it off automatically after 5 minutes. Haven't tried that one yet. Anyone have any other or better ways to bypass some of this stupid crap? [/QUOTE]
