( https://www.alltfl.com/ ) Check out our new spot to find ALL our content, from news to videos and our podcasts! In this episode of TFL Car Chat, Roman is joined by Jen as they dive into the frustrations of modern automotive technology. Before getting to their "Top Ten" list, Roman shares the absolute chaos of trying to sell the TFL Honda Ridgeline on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace. From "perchance" cash offers to buyers trying to lecture him on Kelley Blue Book values, Roman breaks down why the used car market is more exhausting than ever. They also reminisce about the office "furniture"—the 1971 Fiat 500—and the relief of finding a buyer who actually understands the charm of a classic car.
The main event focuses on the technology that feels more like cost-cutting than innovation. Jen and Roman debate everything from the "river dance" required to trigger kick-to-open tailgates to the infuriating trend of moving basic air vent controls into touchscreens. They also touch on the reliability nightmares of retractable door handles and the questionable decision to remove the rear window entirely on the Polestar 4. Whether it's the lack of physical buttons or "phantom draining" panoramic roofs without sunshades, the duo asks one simple question: Why are manufacturers solving problems that didn't exist?
