    As the owner of a Pontiac Aztek Cooler, I had to click once I saw it in the thumbnail. Halfway through the video, I thought for sure I got clickbaited. Thankfully not.
    The Pontiac Aztek Cooler is the best tech feature for sure, and is actually a legitimately good cooler for routine use, keeps stuff cold for a solid two three hours in direct sunlight on 95 degree days, can't complain.

    Blind-spot cameras are unnecessary if you adjust your side-view mirrors to always show your blindspot instead of the side of your car. AAA recommends doing so, and it's super-easy (basically, set the two side mirrors so their view extends rather than overlaps the rear-view mirror). Voila: no more blind spot.

    • @bwofficial1776
      @bwofficial1776 Рік тому +1

      I do this and it's amazing how well it works. Combine this with a regular scan of the mirrors and you never need to turn your head because you know what's there. My car has blind-spot lights but I never look at them.

    heated steering wheels are a must if you live in a snowy climate, so nice not having to drive with thick gloves. Obviously Alanis doesn't have a clue living in Texas, surprised she did not complain about rear window defroster ruining up the rear glass with the lines across it, she probably hates heated side view mirrors. As she is a native of Texas I would love to see her drive on a snowy and icy road, that would be hillarious

      I would be one of those people. I don't like the sun on me or heating up my car any more than necessary. I ordered my car in the highest trim available without a sunroof. Any higher and the sunroof is standard. Those higher trims have stuff I don't need and the sunroof was optional in my trim but so it would have been a waste of money for me. For the other car I was looking at, only the base model has no sunroof. Anything above base has a panoramic sunroof. It wasn't the dealbreaker but I never would have opened it or the sunshade.

      As far as the cameras go, Honda's camera system was awesome. I had one in my Accord.

The OG package also had a forward facing light that would flash at the driver if it senses a front collision.

    Even the now standard backup camera is invaluable. The ease of backing up without the possibility of hitting something is something you can't go without. Even when you would twist your body around and look out the back, it was still a huge blind area that left you vulnerable.

    • @spiralnapkin
      @spiralnapkin Рік тому +2

      Agreed. I hear horror stories of children being run over by their parents backing up and the thought shakes me. I always look at the camera before backing. (I always try to know where my kids are too, but still.)

      100% true. My gf owns a car with backup camera, mine does not. I daily-drive my car to work, but for most other situations (grocery shopping, visiting parents, etc.), I find myself prefering her car over mine, just because of her backup camera. It has become a crucial car safety feature imho.

      I consider this part of a combo though. The TRUE best feature is cooled seats PLUS remote start/climate control. I live in New Orleans. This summer has been MURDEROUSLY hot. Being able to start my car from my phone while I'm in the checkout line, schlep across a 105° parking lot with the sun beaming, and enter a cabin already at a CRISP 68° has been an absolute Godsend. Then the ventilated seats are just cooled-back cherry on top

      I remember when DaimlerChrysler got experimental around 2006-2008. Removable speakers in the Jeep Compass tailgate, the silly heated and cooled cupholders and "Chillzone" in the Caliber, Sebring and Avenger, removable rechargeable flashlights in the minivans, and the introduction of the MyGig infotainment set up and Stow-n-Go. And the insane configurability of the PT Loser and Journey interiors, with multilevel package shelves and hidden compartments everywhere. Pretty absymal cars in every respect, but with really delightful (and sometimes gimmicky) features left and right.
