100+ years of knobs and the argument is "we still can't get it right"? I don't believe that.

100+ years of knobs and the argument is "we still can't get it right"? I don't believe that.
- Kye 5y agoA 100 year old knob is not a 50 or 25 year old knob. They're as different as the wheels on a horse carriage and the wheels on a Model T. They're not working from the same 100 year old design with the same expectations. Ford likely expected the crank handle knob to take some abuse.
- SavantIdiot 5y agoI don't understand the point of this comparison: I sounds like you're assuming I don't realize a knob from 50 years ago is different form one today. Are you aware how dismissive that tone is? The point is we've had 100 years to make the better, and the claims from automakers that they break too easily doesn't hold water.
