You definitely don't want to come to southern California then. Most of these wimps start complaining when the mercury drops below 70°F, and complain longer and louder the lower it goes. That includes my dear wife, who grew up in the winter-snow-plagued Chicago area. :mmph:
I don't gripe when the colder weather hits but my knees and my back sure do, especially if it's damp colder weather. :eusa_doh:

Get a car that goes back 6-10yrs, and you won't get that.
And I couldn't be happier with that fact.
James Powers on the other hand has a newer vehicle, that might have a toaster where the CD goes. Well toast goes with bacon!
My newest car is 2008 dude. lol lol It doesn't talk to you but if you want the information you can look it up in the information menu. It emails me once a month to give me a summary though.
They already try to sell me that service, each time I push the onstar button.
A for effort, but F for convincing me.
What if Yu isn't on duty when you need him to activate it?...Yu can activate it for a month if you need it on a long trip though

Then you go with his cousin SOL, but he's never really reliable and most of the time you still end up with nothing.
From what I've seen on the 2014 Escapes (as I posted earlier), some safety features are great and we've made wonderful progress in that field. I think the new ones have at least 8 airbags(?), while my 2000 Jeep has 2. Then again if I roll it off-road, it can be pushed back over and will probably start and drive from that point.
What concerns me is the Bluetooth integration of the phone. While I've told each driver (that has the newer Escapes) they can use the BT function, I'd rather they NOT be on the phone while driving. Then again, it's hands free which is better in some ways, as long as they aren't using that free hand to type on the laptop! Unless they're parked of course.
Some of the technology can be annoying though. Setting the clock in the new Escape becomes a challenge because of the steps you go through just to do it. In the older vehicles you just push the H on the radio.
Accident avoidance, traction control, abs...way too much computer if you ask me.

More computer than car. No thanks.
Yeah, but who cares about a Pontiac Fiero?Yes there will. I ain't getting rid of mine.
Well that was a junk even way back when. lol lol
