It all stems from someone unfamiliar with the car trying to open it on their own. Two examples that have come up for me:
1. Friend getting in/out car and wants to put bag in/take out of the back.
2. Driving into secure facility and someone wants to search the back of the car (happened a couple times to me actually)

If its a friend i would be like 'the button is above the license plate.'
just playing devils advocate. Then again i could always just use the hatch opener on my viper remote

I run into the same thing. Again, it's a niche luxury. Like, I don't understand why folks spend so much on NAV. I've got google maps. Problem solved. It's subjective to the owner.

Plus, Jeff, now that I know you've got this attitude, my panties are shut, mister.

That trunk release button would come in real handy. It's kinda hard to manually open the trunk with a pick and shovel under my arm and hands when I take the body out of the rear compartment.....even harder when you have to tote a chainsaw on those special dayz........

its ok, your junk hangs out of the side. you're not supposed to wear panties if you are a man. you are supposed to wear 'manties,' which are panties designed to carry some junk.

I just want to fyi everyone that there is an emergency hatch release in the trunk, i will get pictures of it. i believe the general census on the forum states that there is not such a thing in our cars.
