Well I tell ya. I prefer cars without electric this and electric that, seats that weigh as much as I do and engines that can't be heard. I don't need navigation systems and I-pod interfaces.

I like a tactile drive. I like to be able to feel the road and be part of the driving experience, not isolated from it. Maybe, just maybe, if we re-discover that a drive can be fun we don't need all the options that we now think need to be standard nowadays. As for safety, if they can make Smart "safe", pretty much any vehicle can be made "safe".
