Cruise control and radio. Most radio stations play music that does not appeal to me and I'm constantly adjusting my speed due to random incidents on the roadway.

No, rear view cameras are not a necessity. But it sure is nice to have
They numb whatever skill you had, I briefly worked at the escape plant- didn't use the camera ever.

Good for you. Many others use them.

Power steering, automatic transmission, power seats, GPS, power windows, air conditioning, internal combustion engine all numb the senses. They make things easier also

Turn off and never use for 13 years and counting.
I would love to know how to disable my Camry's seat belt chime. Was yours easy to do?

I very rarely use my sun roof. Even if the weather happens to be nice enough that it sounds appealing to open the sun roof, it's too too darned noisy!!

I lived in Massachusetts when I bought this car, and used the heated seats a lot there. Now that I'm in Texas, they're quite unnecessary. A/C seats...THAT'S what I need now!

Some cars do come with seats having A/C.

I actually wish I had the memory option for my driver seat. Both my fiancee and I drive my GC Laredo and I feel like we are always moving the seat around, and I can never get it exactly right!

Which is why I rarely drive Mrs. NBP's Forester, it's too hard for her to reset to her place for someone 5'0" (maybe, she's always been vague about her height) after I adjust it for my 5'11".
