If a touchscreen is bad for volume, it is probably bad for most other up and down adjustments too (e.g. temp). I'd argue touch screens are bad for everything when you are driving, because you can't feel your way around.
- zdragnar 5y agoI hate touchscreens in cars. Avoiding them is a big part of why my current ride is from 2011.
- ddingus 5y agoSame. Want nothing to do with them. Also night driving. I love low interior indicator lighting. The big screens inhibit night vision. The older we get, the worse this is.
- space_ghost 5y agoTouchscreens aren't as bad as the cheap capacitive switches that seem to be taking over the Appliance product space. Every appliance in my new house's kitchen has those damn capacitive switches and they only work ~10% of the time.
- tw04 5y agoI don't disagree, I just tend not to adjust those as frequently. I think Ram has a nice balance between physical and touch: https://i.imgur.com/anDbKgG.jpg https://i.imgur.com/anDbKgG.jpg In general I prefer knob controls for things like temperature and volume, but the physical up/down is ok
- hiharryhere 5y agoOh man, I'm not sure I agree that anything in that Ram dash looks either nice or balanced. That thing is a mess. I agree with the sentiment though. I think Mazda and Volvo have had sensible approaches. On the Ram example though, how would I change what I'm listening to? Would I press: - select source - favourites - for you - audio - categories - media - related - search - apps - tune - > arrow at top - < > CH arrows at bottom All those buttons are present at the same time
