Modern cars are the epitome of feature creep. They have overladen these machines with overly complex systems that are all cascading points of failure.

Yeah I'm pretty tired of all of the overly complicated crap crammed into cars. If it's not for safety and the convenience it adds is outweighed by the complexity and reduction in reliability/repairability, it shouldn't exist.

Just stop with the fucking "entertainment center" they tie it into fucking everything. People only need a shitty $60 wallmart head unit with Bluetooth support. Everything else can be dumb as rocks and SHOULD be dumb as rocks.
