Funny commerical.. but....

I have to comment on how many 'hobbyist first' features are now SELLING points for new cars.

When I wanted to put a "Starter Button" in my car I was told 'Duh - how stupid and rice... do you think you drive a race car?' - then there was my friend that showed of his "Remote Start' on his truck years agai as people looke don and said "Wow - how redneck and ricer" - then there was that Vietnamese friend of ours with his 2 flip down screens in his SUV.

And then there was the co-worker with the backup camera and screen in his car abotu 10 years back. Folks made fun of him. And not to mention the gafawws of ridicule when he put together an LED tailight setup.

Now every single suburbanite is clamouring to drive an pushbutton start, LED taillighted, backup camera configured, remote-starting, flip-down screen econo-box of boredom...

Either we where decades ahead of the curve or the entire automotive world has gone to shit...
