    Default Most useless features on your vehicle?

    as the title states....what are the most useless features on your cars/trucks?

    Some of mine would have to be the passenger airbag switch...i never turn it off, the headlight switch, since all my lights are automatic, and the ashtray, its just full of change.

    hmm... nothing really on mine

    I mean hell - randomguy can vouch - we got like, seatbelt ejection levers in the centerconsole, as well as a moonroof that when you open up, push down a red tab, unhook two red hooks... and the fuccin thing pops out ( in case of accident? )

    actually - there is a button. Its like A/Int something shit button... its useless to me because I don't even know what it does. And with all the little thingies the car has, last thing I want is to push it and have the car say " auto self destruct initiated"

    but see, notice how our cars have the seatbelts hooked onto the doors? Not that smart now that they think of it. Those have been known to decapitate people in wrecks

    Sols don't really have enough room for useless things... they're actually pretty efficiently designed. The cupholders take some getting used to... you flip up the middle console, then flip down the cupholders. If there's anything in your middle console, the cupholders are useless.

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.
