It turns out that more technology in cars isn’t necessarily something customers want, and it’s not really improving their driving experience. We know my thoughts on the matter, but I’ll do my best to stay impartial on this latest survey from JD Power that shows most customers don’t appreciate technology in cars unless they can see a clear benefit to them.

JD Power’s 2024 U.S. Tech Experience Index Study evaluated over 81,000 drivers’ experience with “advanced vehicle technologies” in 2024 model year vehicles after 90 days of ownership, It turned out to be a pretty mixed bag when it came to what people liked using. There are a number of tech features that customers like using because they feels that it answers their needs, but at the same time there is a whole lot that don’t get used very often or are continually annoying, according to the survey.

    You do not need AC. We have two cars in the family and neither has AC.

        I called someone in the 602 area code.

        I said “you don’t need AC”

        The woman that answered said “that cheating mother fucker”

        Then i heard gunshots.

        I hope im not on a list now.

        Well that was a reply to someone saying you need AC to blow hot air, which you do not.

        Either way me personally I do not need AC.

      “In my situation we don’t need AC, so neither does anyone else! My supporting argument is that we don’t have AC and live with it.”

        My whole narrative was from my perspective and my needs? What is your problem?

        edit: I see you are probably misinterpreting the comment chain, the comment is a reply in regards to needing AC for blowing hot air, you do not, just a fan.

        Me personally however, I do not need AC. What other people want or need is not discussed…
