However, that "old school" headunit was perfectly functional for audio.

As far as the HVAC controls, well I like my big Tonka truck knobs. They get the job done. Of course, I also like the ones in later models too. Honestly I can't say I've really cared about HVAC controls until recently when they stopped being real buttons or knobs and turned into iPad controls on newer cars. No thanks.
I 100% Agree. Car that comes to mind is pretty much every new VW / Audi If I'm not mistaken. Terrible design imo and I don't think it's something I'd ever get used to. I see a lot of folks on here who complain about the gen 2 stalk not going back down like a BMW. That to me is such a first world complaint, but flat fake buttons...

Also, the headunit in your car is probably lightyears in function better than the head unit in the outgoing 17-20 ROFL. No BS. Even the 22+ from my experience the Apple Carplay will sometimes randomly decide it doesn't want to function anymore and restart while you're in the middle of using your GPS, music, etc.
