I like touchscreen controls for my apple car play, but literally nothing else. I can adjust the climate control temperature with dash buttons, but if I want to control which vents the air comes through, I have to use the touch screen. Same for if I want to turn on the heated steering wheel. I don't use it too often so that doesn't bug me _too_ much, but sometimes if it's cold when I start my car, it turns it on for me. So when my hands get too hot I have to minimize apple car play, select the ford app, select climate control, and tap the tiny button for the steering wheel. Seems way more dangerous than reading a text.
