Good.
Let them sit and rot.
Looks like BMW is ditching touchscreens in many of the cars they are producing next year due to chip shortages.
Honestly the I-Drive in the Z4 that has no touchscreen is easier to use than the Sync 1 "With navigation" in the Mustang aside from entering phone numbers. Once you get used to the layout it is fairly easy to do without looking at the controls, and my screen pops out of my dash top so you are basically looking out of the windshield instead of in the middle of the center stack of the dash. And no fingerprints.
My only gripe with I drive is you use the map you turn the wheel clockwise to zoom out and counter to zoom in. I want to turn right (clockwise) to zoom in, left to zoom out, like a screw.

I read BMW is removing touchscreen interfaces.
At least we're seeing solutions.
My mom's Audi Q5 is like that. There's also a stylus like pad where you can write letters. At first it bugged me that the screen did not have touch capabilities but now I have gotten used to it and like the fact that the screen does not have fingerprints all over it.Looks like BMW is ditching touchscreens in many of the cars they are producing next year due to chip shortages.

Im thinking at some point this might cause issues.GM trucks stored waiting for chips.
And mice.

"The poster of the images, who has since deleted the photos, claims GM is using a skid loader with a fork attachment and a bulldozer to get trucks out of the mud. While no photos of the forklift or bulldozer were provided, GM-Trucks.com has confirmed from a GM dealer that they’ve been instructed to inspect all inbound HD’s for forklift damage and have noted increased frame rust on trucks stored in the field."
That is interesting, i wouldn't think the extra labor would be worth it. Unless they are taking that out of the destination fee for the dealership cut.GM does a lot of dumb stuff. Like ship Trucks and SUV's with Transport wheels/tires, and then ship the wheels and tires that actually go on the truck or SUV separately. Then at the Dealership a tech has to remove the transport wheels/tires and install the wheels/tires that belong on the truck. Then the Dealership has to ship the transport wheels/tires back to GM to be used again.
And it is not like the transport wheels/tires are generic items. They are alloy wheels with Michelin tires on them.
They will ship a Truck or SUV that was ordered with a "Black Out" option. The tech at the dealership has to remove all of the chrome badging (it gets destroyed in the removal process) and install the "Black-Out" badging. This sometimes requires the removal of the entire front fascia so a "Black-Out" grill can be installed.
Why the truck or SUV can not be shipped as ordered is beyond me. When I worked at Ford Dealerships I never saw this practice.
