They make driving way too difficult!

  • Electronic parking brake, wtf happened to the pedal?
  • Electronic shift, where the fuck is the stick (manual) or shift lever (automatic)?
  • Why can't I just have a god damn normal key? Gotta press a button just to start
  • Radio - can't just have a normal tuning knob, gotta have fancy touchscreen (can't even put in aftermarket if you wanted!)
  • A & C-pillars are fucking enormous, how the fuck are you supposed to see anything?
  • I don't need a camera to back up, well maybe I do because the back window is puny!
  • Side windows too high, can't put your elbow out
  • Steering is jerky and too responsive now with the electronic fly-by-wire, just give me a steering column & pitman arm ffs
  • Brakes are way too stiff and sudden; just let me have a hydraulic circuit to the pedal instead of adaptive electronic bullshit

Wonder why new cars are so expensive? All this new bullshit nobody needs.

I haven't owned anything newer than 1997, ever

Touchscreen radio sounds like danger. With knobs, you can feel where your hand is and don't have to look away from the road. And I swear they put those windows ridiculously high just to piss us off. Glad I'm not currently driving one of those.

Hubby and I just bought a 1973 jeep cj5. Although we own several other vehicles (newest is 2016), this old one is quickly becoming our favorite.
