Conversely, I want the ac controls on physical buttons because when I'm in driving and am in direct sunlight, or when I've just jumped in the car after doing some heavy work, I want ice cold Antarctic air blowing on my face. The ambient temperature of the general cabin is irrelevant to me. I do not want to be hunting around through menus to find the ac fan control slider.

I'm not opposed to a big Max AC button. Use it rarely because the car usually knows to crank it up, but sometimes I agree this button is nice.

I don’t want my car to know anything. I want it to do what I say and only what I say without question. I’m thinking of getting a 70’s truck.

Go for it! Just please figure out a way to try to compensate for your carbon footprint with that thing.

Not having kids.

Slap a pair of truck nuts and maybe a jd Vance sticker on that 70s clunker and I'd say you're pretty safe on that one.
