Ditto. Plus, when you are out in the boonies or a bad neighborhood and your keyless battery dies or malfunctions, you walk.

Very rarely, I sing the praises of some “new” invention.

Related to this, the greatest recent invention (already being supplanted) is the keyless REMOTE. Remote lock/unlock, etc, is fantastic. I got my 1st c.15 years ago, and since then they’ve started incorporating it right into the “key” itself - which is NOT so great. Highly expensive mechanical keys that you can’t just go and get copied. But the SEPARATE remote is great - I can still get an easy copy of my real key, and use my remote access features regardless.

Best to remain silent when your bias outweighs your knowledge. With a dead keyfob you can unlock the door and start the car.

I had to look up in the manual how to get into and start the car with a dead key fob, it can be done, even with the battery out of the fob, but you do need the fob. Same applies if the fob were malfunctioning.
