I just bought a new vehicle 2 years ago. I wasn’t used to the technology, but I’m definitely getting used to the heated seats, and the back-up camera.

Would never give up either. Heck, the wife’s car is 15 years old, still awesome, and one of her key purchasing requirements was that the car have heated seats!

Thumbs up to the backup camera and lights on the side mirrors that alert traffic in the blind spots

I wasn’t used to the technology...


What gob-smacked me was the adaptive cruse control and lane-keeping in our 2018 Honda CRV. With them switched on the car pretty much drives itself on the interstate.

The first time I switched everything on, I noticed the car pulling to the left as the interstate veered left. At first I thought there was something wrong, but then I realized the car was steering itself. When a car cut in front, the car slowed down. And when traffic came to a stop, the car stopped itself.

Do I trust it? No! But it makes long trips much easier.

One bit of tech that disappeared was the built in GPS. Phone apps are updated in real time and WAZE tells you were the cops are.
