US cell service plans always seem insanely priced compared to what we're used to here in Europe. They pay a fortune for shitty plans with low data caps, it's ridiculous.

AC also keeps the car warm you know...and yes, I tell it to keep my car at 21°C and it does just that. Its a Peugeot 308, medium trim level, that's more than a decade old with +250k km on it, I'm not driving a nice new car at all. My wife's VW up is exactly the same, also not new and definitely not a "nice" car.

What kind of shit-buckets are you people driving that requires you to turn on defrost just because it starts raining!?

I regularly drive in conditions that go from sunny to rainy, or even sunny to snow/slush...that's pretty much all our weather is where I live. I never have to start defrost mode while driving, ever. I use defrost to defrost and remove ice from the the car before I start driving, the AC keeps everything fine without me adjusting anything no matter the change of conditions while I'm driving.

Its all placed in the left/right spokes of the steering wheel, your hands shouldn't grab that part...how the hell do you grab it if that stuff is in the way!?

Oh I do, we have almost 200 days of precipitation yearly, and temperatures fluctuating wildly between days all seasons of the year.

Yes, you can operate them without letting go of the steering wheel or taking your eyes off the road.

You should have configured your AC before you started driving.

I haven't had windows fog up during a drive spontaneously since forever ago when AC became standard in even cheap vehicles since they dry the air.

It's always been a button on the left stalk at the steering wheel, and for quite a while wiper speed has been adjustable from the left scroll-button on the steering wheel as well.

That's a ridiculous amount of clothes! 15 pairs of pants...WTF!?

I have 5 t-shirts for private use, 2 for work, 3 shirts, 2 pairs of pants and maybe 10 pairs of socks...
