    Get an aftermarket remote start like the Accessorides with Takeover.

    I had a Compustar brand remote start system on my Tundra, (previous vehicle) and it was awesome. Remote start was available from 3,300 feet away, was a 2 way signal so it would verify it was on and running at my remote, and would stay running when opening the door. But I still had to insert the key and turn it to turn the accessories on, then turn again to have truck go to ignition and ready to drive. Did not need to re-engage the starter. It was a very nice system. The stock Toyota one seems to only start it and will shut off with the opening of the door, or unlocking (?) then you have to restart the vehicle. At least it’s that way with my key ignition.
