I do not understand why car manufacturers love touch screens so damn much. My newish car has a nice display screen and on the console by the arm rest is a nice big chunky knob that controls the display interface. There are a couple other physicals controls around it as well. I can control everything without ever looking at the screen. HVAC system, also physical controls.
I have had a few rental cars from different manufacturers and no physical controls anywhere. So it’s touch screen only and the screen is not reachable from the driving position without leaning way forward. And of course since it’s a touch screen, do you know where my eyes aren’t? The fucking road!
Touch screens are annoying and imprecise at the best of times why do they think traveling at speeds in excess of 70 mph that it’s better? Make it make sense!
