I loved them. May Tom Magliozzi rest in peace. I never heard that quote of theirs, and I agree strongly. When you're driving, you don't want your manual or visual dexterity to be stretched to the maximum. In fact, I have an idea for a consumer product (not a bike or car) that might be patentable, based on the Fisher Price idea. I might begin making it soon.
