Anyway, if you think Randy Pobst or Jason Cammisa have any credibility, this video is worth the watch…

I'm not quite at that point--carbureted road cars predate me by a little bit--but having recently taken delivery of a 2025 Traverse, I think my personal limit for vehicle technology is my '13 SS. Sure, there are 12-years-worth of improvements in between the two, but the Traverse's screen is too big for me, there are too many warnings flashing, and the seat vibrates on the same side the car detects something in its blind spot. The latter once saved an old man who decided crossing behind a moving vehicle was a good idea, and for that, I'm thankful (not sure he even noticed), but I sometimes have a hard time driving when I can't see through the !!!!! flashing when I approach a stopped vehicle slightly too quickly.
