How do you lock the truck from inside the truck while driving or while you are in the truck?
If you're in a bad neighborhood or you are under some sort of attack
and want to make sure no one can open your doors.
Can you lock the doors and remain inside?

Yeah, I have a Model X Keyfob, and it just unlocks when I'm in the car, even after I manually lock it by touching the lock icon. With your phone, just turn off Bluetooth, and touch the lock icon shown by @TyPope above.

I'll try this lock icon. I found it interesting that no one has ever said unlock the door it won't open while they are pushing the button. only thing I do get from people trying to get in is "how do you open the door there is no handle. I'll be like push the button man up here. "Where I don't see any buttons. its right there the little white dot. oh, this one. then they push it, and it opens every time. never had an instance where it was locked. after realizing this I looked around the interior and, in the screen, but I found nothing to simply lock the doors from inside. I missed the little, tiny lock symbol at the top of the screen. the only thing I saw under locks in the menu were child window locks, and lock when you walk away. some other settings but no lock doors button.

There is no way to prevent an occupant from unlocking the doors from the inside unless you enable Child Locks which only will work on the rear doors.
Tho they wanted to lock the outside doors.

Which should lock while you're driving and only unlock when you're parked or stopped in a stopping lane... or crash. But not sure how finished that logic is.

I tell people to push below the dash that illunimates to help find that sweet spot.

Dude what are you talking about? I never said I want to prevent an occupant from unlocking the doors. Why on earth would anyone want to do that! I dont know what kind of work you do but I hope its not kidnapping! I was asking how to prevent a stranger from entering the vehicle.

Doors are automatically locked [from the outside] when driving. Dropped off my wife and kid at Trader Joe’s cause the parking lot was packed. Came by to pick them up when they were done and a notification popped on the screen to unlock the doors when they tried to open the doors.

okay so they do lock when you are in the car. Good, that's good to know wouldn't want to give some would be car jacker easy access. or in my case a crazy fanatic that wants me to autograph her chest. I hope that they stay locked when you stop at light or stop sign, because that's where a car jacker would be waiting. or you have to stop because they are blocking the road with 3 pellets (I know its pallets) It's not like the streets are getting safer anytime soon! I have more good news Read my post "How Cybertruck saved Christmas"

Hang on a sec. Let’s rethink this “issue.” :LOL:

I thought it was a given that everyone knew , all doors lock when put it into drive or reverse. They remain locked at all times while driving.. If your in a Crash, they auto un lock...

Do they stay locked when you're at a red light or come to a stop for a given amount of time?
I've had the truck go into park at a red light and before. I don't know if it was something I did with the pedales or just too much time not moving. and had to put it back in drive with my finger after stepping on the gas pedal and nothing happened. the first time this happened to me on delivery day it took me a couple seconds to figure out what happen with traffic behind me. Does that mean the doors would all be unlocked if it goes into park while you're at a red light? that's probably the most important time to stay locked not while you're moving. I don't know that there are too many criminals that would be jumping into moving vehicles. especially ones that can go 0 to 60 in 2.4 seconds. With no door handles . which by the way is a good deterrent, and you figure that most criminals are too stupid to figure it out. for now but they will figure it out sooner or latter.

Yes, that's the given logic.

They only unlock when you or another key holder approaches, or have parked.

The idea is that you don't have to ever think about it locking or not. My Mazda 3 does this - and much to my spouse's chagrin, it doesn't let her in when I'm in the car and the doors are locked. In fact, my Mazda will lock the doors if someone pushes the button on the outside and there is a key inside, even if there's a key outside!
