THIS is hilarious! Good post!

A vehicle of a stature matching that of wood, warrants the use of this quality material.

I use the nav in my car but if going somewhere new, I always look at the map first to see the route. The nav is great to get you back on track if something goes wrong but I do find that relying on the nav dumbs you down.

Btw, didn't know I was 'famous'.. you've "noticed" lol. If you read back at any of those it's gonna be like in this instance, someone getting all testy and me responding. Just horrible behaviour, like you would say that to me irl "If you don't like the answers to your questions, don't ask them!". Really, you'd say that to a perfect stranger just cuz they disagree w you? Lots of projection going on. I always respect my peers unless they give me attitude. Nuff said. Anyway, going back to the OP, if you are so confident in paper maps, let's bet you will never use GPS ever and me w maps. Good? ![]() Last edited by tranquility; 04-23-2023 at 01:19 PM.. |

Ok, maybe we should do a survey on how many ppl got their gps jammed...never heard of that and it never happened to me. I dunno why you're introducing all that other stuff.

Did someone mention digital displays here? I think they're awesome. Besides being able to change configs w infinite probabilities ofc depending on the maker, I assume it must be more accurate than analog, right? Not sure why there's some hate there other than ppl just trying to be 'traditionalists'.

the touchscreens don't make sense and legislation doesn't really align with them... yea lets go ahead and ban holding cellphones but making touching a touchscreen that has 5 menus and 10 submenus that are insanely distracting and take your attention off the road instead
BMW is already reverting with IOs9... VW got trashed with the new interface and is doing the same...

EDIT: Whoa, I just looked up what that means. I hope you do something about this false accuser, that's a pretty serious and ridiculous charge. Please let me know what this is all about. Anyway, I've been here for a long time and legit (i.e. not a bot or doing those weird 'social engineering' things, I didn't even know what the term meant!). I'm kinda disappointed if this accusation is against me as a quick perusal of my post history would prove my case and also I wonder about the sincerity and ulterior motive of whoever did the accusing.
