A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

It's a big waste of money that could be used to improve the vehicle or reduce costs. Plus you could glue a fidget spinner to the dash for the same functionality.
I'd say that if you really feel like you need a fake stick shift and arcade noises, you'd be better suited with an Xbox.
