What I Wish
#61
What I have never been able to figure out is why anybody who does not want their time wasted by questions or comments they deem beneath their intelligence or pay grade would bother wasting their own time replying. Using some of the very knowledge and skills we would berate the OP for lacking we can simply scroll right on past this topic if it upsets us so.
This thread, as with so many others, would be much better if people who didn't have anything to say would simply not say it. It would also give less credence to the notion that people who drive Corvettes are narcissistic jerks. Furthermore, had only the supportive comments been shared we could all easily see that this forum can indeed be very friendly and helpful.
So keep on participating, Squeaky Wheel. If you can endure the abuse you will find there is a lot of good stuff to be had on here, as well.
But what do I know? I just learned I am an idiot for for touching the screen to change between Nav and Audio while driving.

Separation of interpersonal contact allows for people to execute their true feeling without having to be confronted for their rude comments. They are essentially afraid to do it in person, so this is an outlet for them.

Quite frankly - BS! Maybe you can't muster the hand to eye co-ordination to be able to touch a button while driving but many (i.e. most) people can manage quite well. Do not project you inabilities on other able bodied people.
Not even close. Turning a car radio back in the 50's required as much hand to eye co-ordination.
That's called convenience.
It ain't as stupid as texting, but it's pretty close.
That's why they have controls on the steering wheel.

Folks are responding that the technology is great deal with it....... not that its a simple system. Need to do some more rereading.
