Well that's just on a flat road if you're passing someone and it's pretty hilly around here. On the freeway coming back here where the limit is 70, achieving the speed limit on an incline was almost the absolute max it could manage. It's also just overall sluggish to respond at any speed

Posts about Subaru ownership and models: dealer/service complaints (“they blamed me”), 2025 Forester Hybrid AWD with city‑car fuel consumption, and Levorg road impressions noting CVT behavior—"the best CVT I experienced, but still, the revs being randomly all over the place are counterintuitive"; includes brief mention "Le emissions?"

Incidentally it’s also faster, turns out being able to memorize the layout and feel of an 05 Audi hatchback is way quicker than finger fucking your car’s touchscreen

“Traditional buttons, dials, and levers had perceptible and actionable qualities—you could feel for them, adjust them without looking, and rely on muscle memory. A touchscreen obliterates this," said Steven Kyffin, a former dean of design and pro vice-chancellor at Northumbria University in the UK.

"amazingly" okay, a screen forces you to look for a spot on a flat surface with no tactile information, whereas a button or knob does not and your eyes stay on the road, this is fucking obvious

I hate my Toyota interface. It has a lot of buttons but I end up having to use the screen at *some* point. Heaven help me if its getting hit by the sun, totally unusable.

is this a @spacecatkyle.bsky.social area of expertise? glad to hear carmakers might finally be realizing the shiny new toy of touchscreens isn’t all it’s cracked up to be

One of the many reasons we ditched our VW ID4 was the absolutely shitty reliance on capacitive interfaces. It aspires to be an iPad while forgetting it's a car, and does both poorly.

I had the same issues at Toyota, worse, so since they blamed me for crap that kept happening to the car so, I got a Subaru now. It really just depends on the dealer. The last Subi dealer I went to in 03' was trash. I still loved the car, tho.

Really debating between this and "every car has a giant touchscreen now" for worst recent auto development. (Accepting the Cybertruck is actually the worst recent auto development as a given)

Pulsing from your ABS on dry pavement? It might be a simple sensor issue rather than a rotor failure. Find out why and how to fix it yourself. Full article on IgnitionNest.com

The screen is useful for the backup camera and for parking. Other than that, it’s just a pain in the ass. I could change a CD more easily than I can choose music or anything else on Apple CarPlay. I want my 6-CD player back in the car.

If you're comparing different classes of vehicles then sure, the Prius C is certainly more compact than the Niro. But specifically in the compact SUV class, I personally wasn't able to find anything better. Plus, coming from a 2016 Chevy Cruze sedan, the learning curve for the Niro was non-existent.

They’re square wheel level stupid anyway. By the time a car goes from design to a lot for sale any touchscreen display will already be obsolete. They don’t replace any driving function that isn’t better with controls from 100 years ago, and when you’re not driving you’ll want nicer electronics.

I also drive a Prius. 10 years old and still gets 50 mpg
"The most fun I've had so far with a new car I can see myself buying one day was a Subaru Levorg A shame it's only available with a CVT in Japan - it is the best CVT I experienced, but still, the revs being randomly all over the place are counterintuitive, and is probably worse with a sports muffler"

Le emissions?

Project Miata – The Problematic Brake Job I recently replaced the brake rotors and pads on my Miata. Although neither the rotors nor the pads were worn down to the point of needing replacement, I was experiencing vibration when braking at hig...

it’s bullshit. fucking over everything being behind a screen/paywall in a car. and if that screen fails, good luck changing your settings.
12/27/25, 11:25 PM
It would be great if cop cars and other first responders stopped using touchscreens and mounted laptops too.
12/27/25, 11:23 PM
I’m happy to see this since other than for back-up camera action, I hate the screens. One of the reasons I still have my 2009 Saturn.

If I can't use my little cell phone I'm familiar with while driving because dangerous, how come it's somehow safe or even legal to have a whole ass desktop in front of me to just operate my radio?
