After driving a new Mercedes Vito (I can't describe how insane the controls of this vehicle are, but it has capacitive-touch buttons that you have to swipe to change the stereo volume ON THE STEERING WHEEL), I long for controls that look like this:

Tactile controls should be the default. I was actually interested in the Lincoln Corsair until I saw how much they rely on touch - even for things like the climate control, same as the Teslas. Instantly took it off the list.

		That's why I won't even consider a Tesla. Test drove a few vehicles and it's amazing how many do touch screen everything now. Will -not- buy. The one I ended up buying is all tactile except changing the radio stations. Even that gets really annoying, as you have to take your eyes off the road to change stations. I end up just poking it in random places blind until something happens.
