    I hate key fobs, I have two cars both with massive fobs. I can’t keep both on my keyring if I’m planning to put my keys in my pants pocket. I also hate these stupid things are $200-300 to replace - even more at a dealer.

    They don’t even make the car more secure or harder to steal. Get rid of them.

          I’d expect modern cars to use proximity detection which means the fob only needs to be with you.

          Like my Peguot has a fairly large fob, but it’s just in the pocket of my jacket. Never leaves it. I guess it’s a problem if you don’t have a semi permanent thing like a jacket you use every day though.
