I was somewhat dreading what the interface would look like on my next car purchase. On the one hand I'd love the idea that the navigational map on my phone may be displayed on the car's "big screen", but I didn't know what to make about this touchscreen stuff.

Makes a lot of sense! Right now I can adjust almost everything by touch alone: cruise control, volume, etc. I would hate for those to get buried in an inevitable submenu on a touchscreen.
