GM ditching Apple CarPlay is about money, not safety
I really want to buy a Model S. I'd love to play around with the FSD stuff. Even though it's not really "Full Self Driving"... it is far and away the best autopilot/cruisecontrol available from ANY brand.But I want CarPlay. I use it all the time, I won't buy a car without it.So I spent more at Mercedes-Benz than I would have at Telsa... to get CarPlay. It's just that useful to (most?) people. In a different era of my life, I would have spent more at Ford or Toyota than I would have at GM in order to get CarPlay. Hell, I'd pay a premium for a beat-up used car that had CarPlay, vs a beat-up used car that didn't. People WANT the choice to use their own interface.I can't fathom how anyone at GM's marketing department thinks this is a good idea. -

Mazda adds touchscreen support to CarPlay in 2024 CX-5
I'm constantly trying to touch the screen on my non-touchscreen car... just from habit (using phones/tablets/other cars) the jog-dial/button is a pain in the a$$ compared to just touching the screen. I can't believe car manufacturers thought that was a "better" idea. I will never make that mistake again.
