So, the Lexus back up assist.
How dumb of an option is that? Are people really getting this bad at
driving, or this lazy? Wonder which it is?

agreed, pretty silly. How much does that stupid option cost?

How does one get to the point they can afford to buy an $82,000 car yet
still be too dumb to know how to park? ;)

They paid the license inspector to pass them.
This happens here all too frequently.
Such an option should be illegal.

I guess I'm too old fashioned when it comes to all these options, but I
always wonder if replacement parts will be available from the dealer
10-15 years down the road. In other words, will you be able to walk
into your Lexus dealer 10 years from now and order all the replacement
parts for it, if and when they fail....
Oh wait, Lexus drivers don't care about their cars 10 years down the
road because they buy a new one every year or two. Never mind.
(Of course you realize now how I feel about options like this)

When it fails it could take the car over a cliff.
No further maintenance needed.

Right on, buyers of new expensive cars trade them frequently, then the
suckers buy a deal that costs an arm and a leg for maintenance. >:)

When one buys any used car, something the original owner no longer wanted,
they are ALWAYS buying something that will cost an arm and a leg to
maintance and repair ;)

If I could get a car cheaper by having manual windows, I'd do it like a
shot.
