    While I feel those suggestions have their place, to me that place just isn't here or now.

    Your thread title says it all: "Minimalist Key Fob Case"

    Done.

    I don't know about everyone else, but a letter opener on my minimalist fob sounds extremely enticing.

    I wonder if it would be possible to make a key (like the one of the ones below) that had the chip from the remote (the one that allows you to start the truck by holding it up to the start button) embedded in the head. Durable. No battery to die. It would be the ultimate minimalist key.

    Or like a key that plugged into the car and then turned it to start the truck. Same key, same plug on the doors to get in and out.

    No presale, but based on how meso has been ramping up and gut feeling, I wouldn't be surprised if he made 200-300 of these and it's extremely simple to get one.

    @mesojdm

    When it comes time to make a FOB for our SR5 or clutch brethren, you had mentioned a flip key style. How about an OFT switchblade style? Would be kind of cool/different than the old VW style flip key.

    Not sure how feasible it would be, given what parts are available... just a though.
