Yeah, this problem doesn't apply to me.

I don't even mind. You flick it to D and don't touch it until you park. I'm surprised it's taken this long to start relegating the gear selector on autos to somewhere where they don't take up tons of the most usable space.

i actually like this quite a bit more than the knob selector
the knob thing works alright on jaguards which raise it out of the dash, but for everyone else it looks weird

the button selector is more aesthetic

For what? Stop taking 10 cups of coffee with you you fat pig

>>21550

Well it's only recently that your dash has had to be a music center gps climate control phone computer seat adjuster movie tv screen storage space.
It used to be where you put the gear shifter.
Asshole.

pretty much this, a good boifriend would know better.

Buying new cars are a fucking meme. I'd rather get a 2CV then a car made after 2010. Enjoy being hacked and having your brakes lock up.

push buttons > lever > dial

What's wrong with this?

It'll free up more cab space in the truck than a level over the trans tunnel?

Looks to be equal with a column shifter to me.

What the fuck is with Chrysler?

i don't know why you guys care at all. automatic shifter columns are connected to the transmission only through some wires too.

>>21296
why is my girl touching car commands?

these are probably the same cucks who let their girls feet on dash

>>22024
Yes but you don't think it's a huge waste of space? There are 3 times the number of buttons on the left as there are on the right.

you mean literally everyone who owns a truck and has a girlfriend? I don't know where you live but that is an everyday occurrence in every state I've been to.

Men like to have a nice firm phallus in their hand to make it feel like you're jacking the car off

>>24099
then why are you complaining about something that you never have to see or even deal with?

>>24117
it occurred to me once
>longish trip
>gf takes off her sneakers and socks
>i can feel the smell but whatever, it's not much
>she decides it would be a good idea to take her seatbelt off and stretch her legs
>i'm all like wtf and start yelling while trying to keep an eye on the road
>tell her to never do this shit again

i can't understand people who don't mind filth and feet on their dash

>>23603
What's the Russian word for drive(д)?

>>24025
i guess so, but it at least follows the contours of the cars
and honestly, going for button minimalism just leads to more shitty touchscreen interfaces desu

I still like the huge stick coming out of the side of the steering wheel column. Find me a Civic that has that.

I don't believe you have a girlfriend. I'm 100% sure you're just an angry virgin and felt the need to make up that story about your 'gf' to vent some sexual frustration. It's okay, I understand :^)

That wouldn't be so bad with car thieves and such.
The problem is when my inner /pol/ comes out and tells me

Can easily be abused for regular ass people. You dont have to be a whistleblower for it to be a problem.
Whether its something mundane but still infuriating like an insurance company spying on you and fucking you.

Or even something more intense like legal protesters or anyone who is deemed a nuisance being fucked.
Giving too much power away

>>25491
The worst thing is that they want it to happen, it will happen, and when news come out people won't give a fuck just like with the PRISM and NSA scandals.

>>25556
that's the thing about giving a fuck. why after it's too late?

we have to be vigilant. watch the information channels and try to make connections yourself where none exist before.

This.

You have an automatic. It's not like the back of your hand isn't free.

My grandfather would tell me a story of his first date with my grandmother.
She put her feet on the dashboard and he flipped out and they got in a huge fight about it. They ended the date right then and there, and only by happenstance did they ever see each other again at a later date.

Feet are fucking disgusting
