My '53 is my daily driver. In fact it's the only vehicle I have. I rarely ever lock my truck so for the most part I don't mind the original setup. At times it can be a pain in the rear, like when you've got new truck parts, groceries (beer), or some other obstacle sitting on the passenger seat and you can't slide in or reach across to lock or unlock the door.
On a side note; I was set up at an art show last weekend and left my truck unlocked. The next day, looking at pictures people had posted on facebook of the show, I found a picture of some guy sitting in my truck with a big stupid grin on his face. I'm still POed.
