I love my 2014 Camry because it is uncomplicated and starts with a mechanical key. My wife’s newer Fusion starts with an electronic key fob. The problem with the Fusion is, if you drop your wife off at Kohls and drive to Costco for gas while she shops, you don’t want the only fob to the car to be in her purse at Kohls when you shut off your car to fill up in the busy Costco gas line. Because, duh, you can’t restart the car without the fob.
