I have my eye on a new (to me) vehicle in the next couple of years. I'd gone from planning on buying new but have now settled on the lowest mileage 2019 I can find. New enough to be nice and safe and have physical buttons, old enough not to have all these objectionable "features."

I refer the newest style of vehicles as "spaceships." Call me old fashioned and old guy yelling at clouds, but I want my next vehicle to be, you know, a vehicle.
