Industry News: New Survey Shows Many Consumers Aren't Happy With Infotainment Systems
Nope! I don't, either. I've voiced before that I find it ironic that government(s) have cracked down on cell phone usage while driving ... yet, these infotainment systems are, in many cases, MORE distracting.

Well...........writing as someone who has sold a bunch of "sentimental" cars the last 2+ years ... if you don't HAVE to sell it ... & KNOW you want to keep it ... don't sell it. You'll regret it. I'm now having to consider the possibility of selling my 1979 & 1989 Caprice Classics ... which would absolutely throw me into a deep depression ... lol.

Industry News: Americans Are Leasing Vehicles At A Record Number
Very, very few of the customers I see have their vehicles long enough to pay them off... That's because the people who DO pay them off don't go shopping nearly as often! Ha ... that'd be me. Here in IL, the taxes for a lease have reportedly dropped by 50% ... so the leases here are that much more ... enticing.
