"Also, even those small tablets are annoying as hell at night, as even if you turn them black, they still tend to glow."
Tablet screens in cars and trucks is a staggering thing to me. Just reeks of design for the sake of impressing people and getting sales, with poor judgement of usability.
Give me a basic physical dial or switch any day. Don't make me look away from the road. Allow me to use muscle memory and get physical feedback.
What a nightmare path this has gone down.
