am perfectly happy with my 11 year old truck with no touch screen.
Mines still got a factory cassette player in it

my car just attacks me with negativity - just beeping at me from all directions that I’m about to hit something and I can’t fit there! Damn you, Odyssey. How can I perform when you are undercutting my confidence at every turn.
Sounds like you bought the optional dominatrix package.

Car manufacturers need to back off the touch screens
Having to click through menus to adjust the AC or volume is absurd
When I was little I got my arse beat for throwing a fake set of keys and putting a tiny mark in the area next to the A/C knobs.
If that happened today in most cars you'd be without A/C for who knows how long and spending a lot of money to repair the screen.

its all about new regulations. which leads to cutting costs elsewhere.
Based on new vehicle prices, it doesn't seem like they're cutting costs...just passing them along to us.

I hate the push start. Bring back the regular keys!

Consumers don’t like newer cars as much; thinks they are getting worse
To replace a key fob costs like $400. How is that possibly an improvement over standard keys?

It’s a crime what Mercedes has done to their interiors. Those tablet dashboards are trash

I'd like to bring back the old air-cooled bug.
But it would never comply with our bloated regulations.

You people really adjust AC that often? Automatic AC is such a set it and forget it thing that’s been around for decades now.
Set it to 68 and leave it in auto. Never touch it again.
You see, some of us drive females around regularly...

Does anyone know why the first thing they do is point all the vents at the windows?

quote:$2100 as a one-time free for a competent auto steer feature is well worth the money IMO.
Ford Integrated Services will be responsible for further developing technology like Ford’s BlueCruise “hands-free” highway driver assistance system, which is currently priced at $2,100
But $2k for a subscription for the same is absurd.

Yep. And the next time you get in the car alone and start driving, the passenger window fogs up so bad you can't see out of it.

Cruise control, power steering, power brakes, power windows, delay wipers, cloth seats and A/C are all I care about as far as comforts.

The fact that Jaguar is now deemed " dependable " makes my case.

I have a 2002 Lexus and 2006 Tundra that will probably both outlive me. Power windows, power locks, and ice cold A/C. I don't need a bunch of gadgets in my cars and I DEFINITELY don't need a $1,200 truck note.
