Bought a 2020 Forester and the nanny crap is beyond annoying. Adaptive cruise, lane departure, crash avoidance, auto stop. Auto stop has to be switched off every time you start the car * Aargh! When you turn off any of the nannies, there are warning icons to look at constantly.
Cripes, the manual is the size of a phone book, plus the Eyesight manual, plus the sound system manual. It's like an encyclopedia in the glove box and no room for gloves.
It does have some knobs for climate control and radio.
Suppose if you grew up with all the digital stuff, it's easy peasy. That said, my 18 yo nephew cannot readily look at an analog timepiece and give you the time but knows every function on his Apple watch.
Some of us used to look at old farts as anachronisms; now we're the old farts.
Makes me even happier to drive the 911, especially since the buzzer has finally died.
