Can you lock the doors from the outside with a key fob while the truck is running?

A friend with a Honda dropped by today, and we were chatting about his car. He had to buy an aftermarket security system and fob to be able to lock his doors from the outside while the car was running.

The Maverick will allow you to lock the doors with the factory fob in this condition, right?

What if the key fob gets out of range and the truck is still running? In that case, even if you could unlock it with the door keypad or a spare key, you wouldn't be able to get it out of Park, or restart it if it was turned off, correct?

Only with Remote Start from Ford Pass & I think its only for 15-18 minutes.

Under normal start and run, the horn will beep telling you the key fob has left the inside. I have done this a few times during accessory installs and wanted to hear the audio system for a long time.
