I hate the non-touch screen in my mazda. Have to use the little knob for everything and it causes more distractions because I have to pay attention to the screen to see what’s hi-lighted before I select.

I have CarPlay and buttons on my steering wheel. I don’t have to touch the screen too much. It shouldn’t be a problem because what are you doing while driving where you need to touch the screen so much?

I think it’s a good design because you can use the touch screen under like 5 miles per hour I think.

It takes less time to SEE where you want the cursor to be than to point your finger at the cursor.

It's facts that auto accidents have increased because drivers are more distracted with touch screens in the car. Also the cost to replace the screens are through the roof.

So yea auto insurance prices are going to steadily increase

I hate this shyt so much, BMW went too far trying to make you talk to the voice assistant to set the climate control and roll the windows down.

For what? A slightly more clean look on the dash?

I miss this shyt. All I need is Bluetooth for my music and I'm gucci
Rear camera display is the one thing I'd say is lacking. That shyt is a game changer.

On a side note, up until 2020 my ride had manual rollup windows. Nephews and nieces where fascinated by them.

Completely forgot about that

I like Mazda's that have a small screen. Good enough size for need

Maybe even their more modern ones where it's wider. But doesn't look obnoxious
