Perhaps you don't have problems in your part of the country with people stealing cars that have the push button start thing. Your key fob transmits a radio signal to your car to open the door and start the engine. That signal has been used a LOT in recent years by crooks all over the country to program fake fobs so they can simply walk up and drive your car away. Having a key start is a very good anti-theft device. If I have a choice, I will take the key every time.
Push button - extra cost; many new cars still start with 8" screen and basic software - 2025 will probably have Sync 4 at least on the Lariat - extra cost; more options mean more complexity in suppliers and assembly - extra cost; Ridgeline and Frontier are more expensive mid-size trucks - extra cost. Sounds like you want a larger, more expensive truck. Trade it in on a mid-size hybrid truck - oh yeah, they don't make one.
Cool delivery story 🙂

I see your point but would rather have the convenience of keyless entry where I live is fine

I don’t think push button would cost that much more, I’ll keep my Mav it’s the right size for me.
