get this, '19 jeep

I'm really staring to despise all the gimmicky, gadget "features" they're loading the new vehicles up with. I guess you can blame it on marketing because they constantly have to convince people the new model has all sorts of improvements over the previous years. Planned obsolescence it's called. I like technology, but I think it should help you without being annoying at the same time. The manufacturers apparently don't' care so much about that last part.

well, after the Ford explorer/Firestone tire failures, and probably going the extra mile, so to speak, for optimizing fuel economy, the feds mandated the tire pressure monitoring. So if you have the tpms already, and you have the computers anyway, I imagine it's just a little programming to make it do that, so I don't know how much of a gimmick it is. I was certainly unaware of it, and it had no influence on my wife and I buying the car.
