Winshield wipers delay system is unusable - it speeds up if a little more water is on the windshield but it never slows down. And you cant disable the autospeed up (dont think this is a fed thing)

Add in not being able to charge my phhone without it going into carplay mode etc - all I want it to do is charge the darn thing

That sucks. My wife's 2018 Outback has an adaptive cruise system that works really well. I've never had it get confused by cars in other lanes, on curves, etc...

My '08 Boxster has great adaptive wipers 98% of the time. Occasionally, they run more than I like, but that's never a surprise, like if there's a heavy mist or spray from cars in front or my wipers need to be cleaned or replaced.

I don't get all of the hate for CVTs. For all of the folks that hate them, have you all had one that you had a bad experience with or is your dislike based on magazine articles?

Williams tried to put a CVT in an F1 car in 1993, but it was outlawed before they could actually run it.

So far the trans in my wife's Outback which isn't a light weight car that has a 3.6L flat 6.
