My new car tried to kill me

That video used icons in the Settings menu.

One big gripe with my Camry id the menu only uses three letter abbreviations with no indication of what they mean. Many three letter acronyms have multiple meanings. I am sure "proactive Driving Assist is not the first guess when people see PDA.

 

Once again we are provided a chance to learn the value of reading the owners manual.

 

Picked up my car. No instruction beyond using the map function. I wanted to get home. But I had read the owners manual from the Toyota web site in advance.

Drove home 250 miles. By mike 70 I had played around with all the buttons and figured out what displays I wanted and how the cruise control worked. This while driving 70 MPH on Interstate 95. I only use CC on divided highways and both hands on the wheel. Since all such roads have gentle curves, I never encounter the curves problem. Nor the faint lines problem as interstates are well marked. As traffic gets congested, weather deteriorates, etc I take over and turn it off though I have been surprised how even TSS 2.5 in heavy rain works well.

 

Never heard of it.

 

My sales rep insitted on being with me on the first drive. He started out demonstrating key fob start, making sure I knew hoe to adjust the drivers seat and HUD and then, before & during the drive, he basically covered all buttons and features. he says that is hos favorite part of any sale. Our family has bought from him for 20 years. He had a Gen 1 Prius for a long time until it was rear ended a couple of years ago.
