keyless entry

[Macram2021]

Hello, i have a 2021 Bighorn that i have been very happy with for 5 years
i use the key fob button for entry but i know some vehicles are set up so that they unlock when you touch the door handle as long as the fob is in your pocket.
is there a way to enable that feature or is that part of an option package that i don't have?
thanks for any feedback

I'd love to have it on my truck, but it's quite extensive for '25 & '26 models.
