Close.your eyes and operate your fucking center console. Can you? No because you are touching a flat piece of glass ya tard. Feedback is some tactile response not you feeling the glass. Does the screen vibrate when you touch it? Learn what feedback is bud.

You (and the designers) are fucking WRONG. Physical buttons you can distinguish from one another. You putting down people to make yourself feel superior is your way of justifying buying a total piece of shit.

And once again, cars are built for the masses, if it is unsafe for them then it is a terrible design and should go back to the known good way.

Go and put square tires since its such a good idea. Infinite, Stopping power!

Why would I close my eyes? I’m driving?

Most of the controls I need to operate while I’m driving are on the edge of the screen and you can feel the edge to know where to touch.

But I don’t have a problem glancing at the screen for a half second to know for sure where the control is. Just like you glance at your rear view or side view mirrors and take your eyes off the road for a fraction of a second.

If you can’t use a use a touch screen, do you not check your mirrors? It’s not that complicated.

This is a you problem that is either incompetence or you trying to find something to bitch about because you don’t like new shit. Go shake your fist at the sky and tell the kids to get off your lawn.
