Maybe if we didn't put computers and cameras in our cars they wouldn't be so expensive

Is this what the new subscribe-to-drive cars look like inside? Just a straight up tablet where the music and heat controls are supposed to be?

Funny enough, when I purchased my car, I went with the last model that didn't have the computer screen in it. The last of the actual BMW car cars. No iDrive or screen. I fuckin love that car.

Everyone insists to have HVAC controls as physical buttons. How often do you mess with them?

I set up my previous car to 20C when I bought it and it was at 20C when I sold it. Same with the current one, which has touch screen control. It heats the cabin in winter and cools it down in summer. If it's very cold or very hot, it automatically blasts on max.

What am I missing?

Why not have both

[–] GalacticTaterTot@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I've got a MK8 Golf and boy are the interior ergonomics of that thing annoying. Capacitive EVERYTHING. Steering wheel controls. Climate controls. Overhead lights!! It still has a normal blinker stalk though. But I knew what I was getting into when I bought it....I mainly wanted one of the last manual hatchbacks before they die out completely. Good thing it is super fun to drive so I don't really pay attention to the annoying lack of buttons.

Is that a cassette deck? Lucky.

I recently bought a new car and I'm so glad that even though it's very modern it doesn't have a screen.

I just got a Corsa D from 2006 and am so happy the interior is still original. I think it looks great, actual buttons for anything I would need and a tiny 3.5mm jack to hook my bluetooth receiver up to for Spotify. It's perfect IMO.
