    I don’t like that all the new cars have touchscreens these days. Are there any with proper old-fashioned buttons?

      Kia and Hyundai. When I was doing my research, those two were the only brands that had physical buttons for everything related to driving. I only need the touchscreen for changing albums or settings.

        This is what’s frustrating in that car designers don’t understand most people don’t necessarily hate big screens, it’s putting essential controls in those screens. I’m a fan of big touchscreens myself but I want them to be strictly for infotainment purposes only. Any essential component should still be knobs, dials, and switches.

      Just buy old cars and keep the retrofit shops in business. The billionaires refuse to make cars we want. Youll be forced to have everything you dont want.

        Very expensive, putting new money into and old car on a custom build that is unknown for reliability.

        The Slate truck doesn’t exist yet, at least not as a street legal mass produced vehicle. They’re aiming for a late 2026 launch, but they’re not there yet.
