Yes, our cruise control feels like it is hitting the brakes, when it isn't. When I first got the car I kept checking behind me to see if the brake lamp was coming on going down steep hills.

And...oooh:

That would look sweet with a carputer instead of that navi

I thought this was a good find. I hadn't seen it before..

i have the navigation coming next week. but i dont have the brain or the gps antenna because it would be pointless. no way in hell it would work in the US. i might set it up for dvd and cd info also. but i dont want another carputer.

Your dissatisfaction with the carputer most likely resulted from software issues. Now that you will be able to mount it up higher, I suggest you do some custom coding. Something that boots extremely fast like QNX and some decent programming could yield the results you want.

yea my major beef with the carputers i've done in the past is the loading time of like 20 seconds or more. plus there are no affordable touchscreens available that will be daylight viewable. so right now its a total waste. i'll give it a few years til the screen companies smart up a bit and get us some new technology that wont catch my wallet on fire.

I have a JDM Legend with everything except satnav.
Heated and electric reclining rear seats, 215 hp engine, electric steering tilt & reach (do US versions have this?), electric drivers lumbar support etc, etc.
Its great, but to be honast, just alot more stuff to go wrong - it is a Legend after all!
My nieces and niephews do love the rear seats though (they can even control the stereo from the rear seat arm rest) great toy!

He does and he is. Phil's the grumpiest 20 something I've ever seen. Hope I'm still around when he's 40---he'll be shouting down rain barrels just so he'll have someone to argue with.

He's the next DaveC, I'm tellin' ya---
