Next thing will be cars to drive around empty just to burn up gas.

I am so sick of the current trend towards turning cars into IPads with wheels. They are CARS...if people don't know how to parallel park or drive, then they shouldn't own one.

I completely deny the existence of progress for the last 30 years in car development and will continue to drive nothing else but my cars of these past eras until they lock my into a mental hospital and still use road maps made of real paper, mostly as old as the cars themselves.

Me too, no GPS for me, maps and instinct..

Sorry, I need GPS when I'm in D.C. or NYC.

Used to drive all the way through downtown Chicago with a Rand McNally with a friend, I admit if I had to do riding and reading on my own it wouldn't have worked out that well.

I can honestly say, there are way to many modern systems on a vehicle that are absolutely stupid and serve no purpose other than laziness.

this is one of them.

Can't parallel park, don't get a license, can't back up without hitting parked vehicles or pedestrians, don't get a license.
