seems a bit extreme mate. Thats what happens when your dealing with computers in cars. like anything with computers you tend to have some issues. You dont have to accept but you also dont have to get rid of it. Maybe a model T Ford is the go

Tell me about computers in cars...shitting me to tears already (I bought a VW Golf GTI with the DSG transmission) but its sooooooo fun when all the sensors are playing nicely together.


I never thought I'd be one of those cranky people who doesnt like electronics but I think I'm getting there (I also happen to work in IT).

Don't joke about the model T. Remember I drive a GQ patrol with a 4.2 diesel. It may as well be the first cousin to the model T.



Despite all this, I'm still here reading because I still want a JK sometime in the future. Fandangled computers or not.
