ABS and a couple of airbags is all I need in terms of safety.

An CD/MP3 player is also a plus.

I've got my own portable GPS unit, so I don't need an uber expensive one installed in the vehicle.

And I must say, heated seats are really nice on cold mornings. AC is ok - but typically, I'll use my windows on even really, really hot (I mean 90+) days.

But everything else - like voice activated text messaging, 3 levels of traction control, traffic enhanced GPS, "press this number to order a polo shirt that matches your car" or "let me tell you how to get to your destination" gizmos -- I don't need.

And don't get me started on DVD players for the kiddies. Hey - wanna see something in Hi-Def little Johnny - then look out the freakin' window!!!!
