I’m going to add some anecdotal validity to this point. I have a 2019 Subaru WRX, which has a good mix of touch and physical knobs, but my other vehicle is a basic 1994 Dakota pickup that I love because it’s got a radio and cassette player and very little else. The AC works, but it’s just a very in the moment…

Considering the sheer number of features modern cars come with, it’s unlikely that we’ll see any automaker completely abandon the touchscreen. Adding physical controls for everything would likely make the cabin look like the cockpit of a modern jet.

This was a big plus when we selected our Mazda 2024 CX-90. It has zero touchscreens. ZERO.

This is so obvious it hurts my brain to imagine why it took automakers even 5 minutes of thought to determine that buttons/switches are preferred. It’s not like we need them for everything...just the stuff you change on literally every drive. Here are the buttons I touched this morning on my 8 minute drive to the…

If I saw something like that and had some free time on my hands, I would definitely go to the dealership and pretend I’m interested, eat their snacks, drink their coffee, burn their gas, or energy, on a very long test drive, pretend I need to “make a quick call” while I go watch some youtube videos somewhere while…

It’s a scam. the car is probably sold already. I had a similar situation with a Ioniq 5 Limited. Advertised lease for $99/mo, $0 down, 36 months. I called the dealer (was about 1 hour away) and kept asking if the car was on the lot and available and I kept getting the runaround. eventually they admitted the car was…

Bar none, Lincoln has the best model names in the industry right now:

Dimwit algorithms telling dimwit dealer how much to sell a dimwit truck to a dimwit buyer.

Cybertruck aside, I’m with you. I can’t stand to look at these GM twins.

In before Cybertruck! I personally love the SSR, but I’m fully aware my opinion on this matter is objectively incorrect.

Manufacturing cannot continue in the US under that scenario since the input prices + labor costs will negate the ability to make profit.

I will bring automobile manufacturing back to the highest level in the history of our country...it’ll be like it was 50 years ago.

Don’t insult stupid motherfuckers like that. He’s somehow worse.

He’s one stupid mother fucker.  

Reached over and honked the horn at someone else on my behalf. Someone who was driving dumb, not, like, a friendly honk to someone we knew or something.

This is the best takedown I’ve seen of this promise, and he would 100% rely on this read of it if he won and it didn’t happen.

This has been Trump’s con since 2016 when he had a definite amazing plan for replacing the ACA. Now he’s downgraded it to a “concept of a plan.” And dumbasses still believe him!

I have family members who think the president directly sets the price of groceries. Like, they call up the heads of grocery chains and say “raise beef to X dollars per pound.” They want Trump to win because they think he’ll make steaks cheap again. I’ve tried explaining that that’s not how any of this works, but they…

They probably think he will do it the same way voters believe whoever is president has direct control on how the economy is doing.
