You could find them and operate them with just your fingers, never taken an eye off of the road. Besides that the big screen is really expensive, and they blind you at night.


That was one of the things I had to have on my 2018. Found a 2wd Longhorn with a small screen. Love it. Heater radio volume all controlled by a simple turn of a knob. Would have been even happier if it had no touch screen at all but that wasn't available. Don't see the need for a tv size screen in the middle of my dash.

iagree with both of you |
And while we're at it, Volume, balance, bass and treble worked just fine for me. Wish the idiots would just take a early 80 to 90's vehicle, upgrade the suspension, brakes, engine (maybe), airbags etc and dump the unnecessary garbage. Wonder what impact that might have on the sticker price ? beer

If nothing else, I like the screen for the backup camera. 8 inches is fine for that, 12 is overkill, but the standard 3 inch would be semi useless.

Backup camera screen is in the rear view mirror on our '19 classic Ram. Perfect place for it in my opinion.
