>>29035028The TV is a TV. The infotainment screen will total your car when it's EoL.
Idiocracy world

>>29035028>Make it make senseReddit faggot speak. Anyone who uses this phrase is a drooling retard.
>>29035146The phrase is older than reddit, and older than you, child.
>>29035028>Rich people thing>Average person thing People are just mad that they aren't special
>>29035028It is fine when I want to do it. Not when some faggot bean counter makes me do it because a screen helps them save 3 dollars over 30 years.
>>29035222The worst part of that is that if they just raised the price by $3 instead, not a single person would even notice the price difference.
>>29035246Saving money or no, normalfags demand screens, which is why they're even on the most expensive of cars.
>>29035028I don't want to sift through 5 touch screen menus with clunky UI's just to turn my A/C on.

>>29035156Updooted
even as a teenage turboricer i was only watching pimp my ride to see how retarded they made the cars
>>29035028The multiple tvs in your car was never sick. It was always cringe.
>>29035483once there was a tv installed into the read mud guard
>>29035484https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8CbwfDE8e4&list=PLcq7tccUM0lbFvbNtJo6uVvQ3Qtc93LHPthat's why i watched the superior car slop on TV
>>29035028xzibit is a nigger and only niggers ever appreciated this shit, just like they do now
>>29035028not many screens about around that time, its that or a portable dvd player lol.but also screens have gotten alot worse, pritty much unreadable in daylight, and way to bright at night.>>29035222>go to remove car stereo>wiring loom super short>cant reach plugthey must have saved 1c
>>29035028>>xzibit puts multiple tvs in your car on pimp my ride>>holyshit.exe that’s sicki always hated this even in 2008 during the weird ass tuner scene era.I mean sure it'd be cool to have 1 screen and a playstation 2 in the back maybe but you can play all that shit on like a samsung now so why have it INTIGRATED into the dashboard and panels?
I want a fondue fountain in my carXzibit:>yo nigga we hooked you up
>>29035666>but also screens have gotten alot worse, pritty much unreadable in daylight, and way to bright at night.Display technology has seen massive advancements and it's trivial to make extremely high quality panels that have much deeper blacks, much wider usable viewing angles and infinitely better response times on panels that are way larger, way higher resolution and capable of orders of magnitude higher refresh rates than whatever crapola was available in the early 2000's.The problem is that those good screens cost money and it's much cheaper to just shove more shitty cheap slop down your throat, so the manufacturers will just cheap out because what the fuck are you going to be able to do about it. At least the early screens were so expensive that going for then-high quality wasn't much of a stretch.
>>29035028>holyshit.exe that’s sickno one thought it's sick other than beaners and underaged wiggersearly 2000s rice is the car equivalent of furries
>>29035028It was also cringe back then.
>>29035028If either of the LCD panels in my 1988 chevy van die, I'll have a bit of a harder time playing my playstation.if the LCD panel in my 2019 equinox dies, I'll never be able to operate the radio ever again, nor change numerous settings within the car (not just for the radio).honestly I don't care about the radio, if you can tell, but it annoys me that HVAC settings are buried in there like max auto fan speed and such. you generally want it higher in the summer.and if the LCD panel in the instrument cluster dies, I won't be able to see the odometer, the oil pressure, the voltmeter, nor will I be able to disable traction control.
>>29035028So we can blame pimp my ride for tablets in cars? So I should hate exhibit for more reasons than the people on the show got fucked hard by it?
>>29036633>2019 equinox>real dials and buttons for pretty much everythingThat's not even bad. If the radio dies you can likely even just replace it with any standard double din kit.
>>29036633>>29035033LCD panels will outlast cast iron engine blocks you guys do not understand the simplicity in engineering of an LCD plus the auto standards are so dang strict those things will last 10,000 years
>>29036790this is the dumbest thing i've ever heard. i have a cast iron block from 1971 in my car right now. never even been bored over. show me a single 55 year old lcd that's still working.
>>29036847>55 year old lcdKek
