i had purchased a faraday pouch for all my keys years ago because of the rash of rfid car thefts in ny. now they want to make us use our phones? nope! just saw an article in car and driver that the journalist has one of those wristbands that opens the hatch to his jeep when you place it upon the letter J. that way people can leave their keys in the car while at the beach. seriously? when the mrs and i go to the beach, its in my 67 camaro. no electronics, no power steering, brakes, and its a stick. the only person who will steal it is popeye with his big forearms and calf muscles. nobody else is able to drive the car.

My favorite is the numeric pad on my 2003 F150.

I think Tesla has had the phone thing for a while?
