Like-new two year old car. [View all]

It was supposed to be mine, but I still prefer my ten year old car, so my husband and the dogs have been breaking the new car in for me.

What I hate about the fancy new one is the stupid touch screen. What idiot thought that was a good idea?

With my old car, if I want to adjust the heat or radio or anything, I can keep my eyes on the road while I reach over and feel for the knob or switch.

With the touch screen, I have to take my eyes off the road if I want to use anything on the touch screen.

I would pay extra to get the old knobs and switches put back on my new car, but I'm pretty sure that isn't an option.

But yes, I like the screen when I need to back-up. But it's not worth losing the knobs and switches, IMHO.
