no interior trunk release. I'm not sure about that one though. unless you can release the trunk with the key in the ignition.

yes, you can release the trunk from the FOB while the key is in the ignition...and no interior trunk release to speak of
I can't find one at all...stupid design by ford. I closed my keys in the trunk the other day and had to climb through the back seats and reach around my stereo system...
what if i were to have a custom fiberglass enclosure that blocked the laid down seats from the front of the subs where my keys had been laid? DOH!!!

Don't ya hate that. Go to the trouble of designing a complete new car and miss something simple like a trunk release.
Just remember, people from Ford read through these boards so they'll be on it as an update by now

Here's an example of another cost saving measure byu Ford. You can only access the truck via the remote or key.
I think it's a good idea!
For a thief it was easy to open your trunk(pre05) and look casual taking your stuff. But now look how much harder it is and how it would look getting ripped off, if someone was cleaning out your trunk through the car. And for a convert, it's even more secure. They did think about it, you can use your key and you have the remote. In case some of you don't realize you can open the trunk with the car running as long as you have the parking brake on. I don't think they were trying to save money, just being smarter.
Just my 2¢

It's a cost saver. Just like the changes they made from 03 to 04. Hell my car doesn't even have an underhood light.

What changes would that be? My '04 Cobra has a trunk release button.
