    This trend is why I am saving to swap the engine on my car when it blows. I don’t like any screens in my car but a digital clock, and maybe a readout on the dash. I just want a fun, reliable vehicle with excellent AC, good safety ratings, and decent fuel mileage. Power windows are a bonus. Lol

      Rather than a screen a good place to mount phone by default which is easy to remove and place would be amazing.

        That would be awesome. Give me a place to put my phone, connect me to an amp/speakers and noise cancelling mic array via Bluetooth. That’s all I need from a car stereo. AM/FM tuner is nice in an emergency or no data area.

      I thought I didn’t either until I got a car with a built-in backup cam. Extremely helpful, and I feel vulnerable in a car without it.

        In the US, they’re mandatory in all new vehicles.

        I’d wager this is part of the reason for the ubiquitousness of touchscreens.
