People are getting fed up with all the useless tech in their cars
Tesla continues to rank above average.
For the first time in 28 years of JD Power’s car owner survey, there is a consecutive year-over-year decline in satisfaction, with most of the ire directed toward in-car infotainment.

The big problem is this custom dash crap. If they kept the screen to a normal double-din slot people could customize with what they want from the after market head units. But instead manufactures seem to be focused on designing the main unit in such a way that it cannot be replaced or upgraded, rendering the entire dash useless.
Absolutely a problem, that shit should be standardized amongst manufacturers so they can be easily replaced.
No, because there is already a standard that worked for decades until it suddenly didn't. The old standard is fine and doesn't need a new one, just a return to actually being used.
Yeah but if they go back to user customisable features then how are they going to charge you a subscription to use the built in seat warmers?
But then how will they get someone to spend $40k on a car with a slightly better screen a few years later?
A couple years ago I had a salesman try to use the "bigger screen" as the big selling point for going up in trim. I asked him why the hell would I want to take my eyes off the road to look at the screen while I'm driving. He said it was safer because I could see more, then I asked if that mean the cheaper trim didn't have the same safety standards as the more expensive one.
So anyway, the wife "convinces" me to buy the more expensive trim...
