I remember that being a feature in my 2002 BMW. Unfortunately, a Double DIN stereo was more important than the native controls. So I lost the ability to schedule the auto start time.
Edit: “Auxiliary heating” is apparently what it was called.
I guess that depends on what you mean by “smart car”. It’s a 2021 Ford and the app let’s me do scheduled starts. Turns on the steering wheel and seat warmers too.
Ford surprisingly is one of the few that don’t do this. At least for what I have anyways, but it’s not base model.
The only thing I’ll have to pay for to continue using is the GPS in another year or so. The app itself is free but pretty limited in overall functionality. Remote start, lock unlock, check tire pressure and oil life.
They only complaint I have is the damn windows take forever to thaw the seal enough to roll down unless I pull them back a little.
our local bus goes to grocery stores and that the most of it. if i lived near a retirement home, and worked at a grocery store or strip mall, i’d be set.
right, so maybe the ability to not drive should be a part of how you decide where to live? i certainly wouldn’t want to live somewhere where the only choice is driving
I had a friend that during the cold winter mornings would wake up and piss on his windshield to clear/melt the frost. He of course kept the vents closed so he couldn’t smell it on the drive. It really was disgusting, but made me wonder if he might’ve had a clever time saving idea.
How did he do it? Like, I could hit the windscreen from the ground but I doubt I could clear it… Would probably have to stand on the bonnet to get it clear with a morning wizz. I don’t wanna stand on my bonnet. Maybe if I pissed out the window… 🤔
