Also, I have 0 issue with steering wheel mounted controls for things. Actually, I like the fact that I can control my radio or cruise control with just my thumbs: it keeps my eyes on the road & my hands on the wheel.

Your right, the steering wheel buttons are pretty good for keeping eyes on the road.

Nothing like that, ha ha. That's funny I do like modern technology especially AC and Heat. But it wont be in my lifetime that the cars do the driving for you. Until that time comes we need technology to do eveything for us but drive. Maybe someday voice commands will control all the modern functions in a car. It just seems like the cars are safer in crashes, but with all the funtions inside the car to control, you are more likely to have a crash.
