We used to be a car review channel. Now we review ipads that are attached to four wheels

ironically the cybertruck being bulletproof actually makes it more dangerous. Not just because cars are designed to crumple to absorb the impact but also because If you were to get in an accident that made you unable to open the doors, stronger doors and stronger windows means they're harder to break to get you out of the car.

If I can't do basic repairs on it without an IT degree, I'm not driving it.

What you said about digital screens being HARDER to use than dials and buttons is HUGE. When you don’t think about it, digital screens seem like the obvious luxurious step forward in interior car design. But it’s not, it’s worse. The fact that it’s also cheaper to produce makes so much sense.

I love that you can't use your phone in your car without getting a ticket but it's okay to use the gigantic iPad stuck to your dashboard.

It honestly warms my heart and restores a little bit of my faith in humanity to see two complete strangers flip you off just for being in that thing

As a car guy, thank you for bringing this message to a wide non-car enthusiast audience. Too many people don't seem to realize just what has been needlessly discarded in the name of "progress" in design. Even when something is no longer technically needed, sometimes a skeumorphic design is an objectively better design.

Hello. Mechanic here. Everything you're saying is 100% spot on. Modern cars (especially Teslas) are not only nightmares to drive but to work on as well

The cybertruck looks like you’ll get third degree burns if you touch it in summer.

Your car is not an iphone. Your car is a deadly 2600lb powertool for transporting you across highways at 60 miles per hour. You have to own a licence to use it and making a mistake that only takes 1 second to make is not just a felony, but could take your life.

The fact that I learned more about car physics contributing to passenger safety in my high school than the person who decided that this car should be rigid and bulletproof says something

"I definitely think it's worth 100K" Bro, it CAME with rust on it. The copium couldn't be stronger.

i swear some of these car companies are in a competition to release the biggest touchscreen 😭 by 2028 they're just gonna replace the windshield like "Oops! All Screen"

"The PRNDL stick isn't necessary anymore" My smartphone doesn't have a shutter but it makes a shutter sound whenever I take a picture. And that's objectively way more unnecessary than the way I operate a multi-ton vehicle that could easy kill me and everyone around me.

My dad and I painstakingly restored a 73 mustang which I drove back and forth to college for a couple years. The thing I love about old cars is that you can actually fix things yourself. New cars are so over-engineered that sometimes you can’t even change your own oil much less do regular maintenance. There is beauty in simplicity.

I’m so happy people who aren’t car enthusiasts are finally understanding how terrible new cars are becoming 😭

@littelcreatchure506

Drew you do not understand how close this topic is to my heart. The entire reason i decided to become a civil engineer was because i wanted to improve public transportation and city design SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE of how awful cars have gotten and how many pedestrian deaths could be prevented literally just by people using them less. The headlights thing has irritated me for YEARS, i literally cant drive at night anymore because of it, and i frequently stop to take photos of these absolutely gigantic trucks whenever i see them because the hoods are often the same height as me if not taller. These vehicles are a legitimate public safety issue and SOMETHING needs to be done about them.

Putting buttons on the steering wheel to control the radio and other similar features is a great example of a good modern control feature, because it requires less fumbling. That kind of stuff is vastly superior to putting everything in a touch screen.
