 Got a loaner while my TDI gets serviced and holy fuck I HATE new vehicles. 

Lane assist, auto start / stop, so many eco-warnings and unnecessary indicator lights. Completely useless and literally makes driving more dangerous and harder. 

I will never buy a post 2012 vehicle period. They’re such cuck mobiles. 
 Hey I've got a TDI too! Recall buy? 
 They’re the best. It wasn’t a recall buy though. This is my second, I had an 05 mk4 Jetta 5 speed for years but wanted something bigger with Awd sticking with the TDI platform - so I got a gen 2 Touareg. It is sick. Best all around vehicle out there I will die on that hill. 
 Fully underwrite this - a great take 
 You get it Phil🫡🤝 
 I’ve been lusting after 90s Land Cruisers for a year for the same reason. You can’t beat an analogue experience driving! Plus, will work when we get EMP’d 😂 
 Dude get a diesel Land Cruiser you will never need another vehicle 
 Yes, that is the right play. I need a third row  though, which is limiting. Then again, I could always pick my two favorite kids in an emergency… 
 Roshambo tournament 😂 
 Lane assist is weird to get used to, right. 
 Infuriating me😂
