News a écrit :
I used my last car for 18 years, and very, very rarely used the cruise
control. This car, owned for a year, I haven't bothered finding out
how the
cruise control works.

I'm on my fourth car with cruise and each I used extensively. No point
in having a driving aid fitted, if you don't use it. I took time to
learn how all the gadgets on my car work.

The satnav, the auto wipers, the auto seat, the reverse sensors, auto
climate and so on. Even how it constantly checks the caravan's lights
are all working and puts a brake light on half power as a substitute
when a tail bulb fails.


Auto climate is a pain in the arse.


No, *some* auto climates are a pain in the arse for *some* people. (The
same goes for auto just-about-anything.)

I'm on my third car with auto climate, lights,


auto lights eh!

does it somehow know that you are in a county that requires daylight running
and automatically turn them on for you?
