I wish the song title and artist showed up in the instrument cluster while in XM mode like it does when bluetooth streaming or using the USBs. I wish the cupholders in the rear arm rest actually held two cups. My kids are always fighting over who's cup can sit level while the other is leaning. The cupholders in the doors can't really hold any cups/bottles. I also wish the front cupholders were the same size. Trivial things, but they kind of annoy me.

1. Install tires that give the alum. rims a little protection from curb rash.
2. Install some small "coat hooks" under the grab bars in rear seats. On some occasions I need to hang a dress shirt, dress coat back there instead of just
3. Move the steering wheel heater button to an area that I can see without taking my eyes off the road.
4. Improve the overhead "sunglasses" holder so I can store something else useful in there as well.
5. Add a lighted A/C on/off button so I can "easily" option to get fresh or A/C-conditioned outside air.
6. Add an option where I can just manually slide the sunshade open or closed to suit without having to fiddle with a switch (that's just me).
7. Design the doors to give me a little more ding protection from other driver's doors. I can't even add an aftermarket rub strip without totally messing up the sculpted door curves.
8. Make the center arm rest extend just a little further to the front so I have more room to rest my right elbow while still holding the steering wheel with that hand. The Altima's is perfect in this regard. (Again, that's just me.)

Oh no, please, no. This is the 21st century, after all. Cassette tape player to boot? :-) A floppy disk drive while we're at it? :-)
But seriously. If I had to chooses between my 2018's CVT and my 2005's five speed automatic I would choose the latter, I don't care about the better gas mileage - it doesn't make it or break it for me.

I sit close (I'm 5'8"), but I can see how you would have not problem with the A pillar sitting further rearward in the seat. I tried it yesterday and I had no problem, but reaching the steering wheel was not as comfortable.

I'm curious. Do you live in Chicago or some city with very "tight" streets? I got lost in Chicago a couple of years ago. We found ourselves heading down a 2-lane residential street at 5pm, with cars parked on both sides, severely limiting the distance between all driven and parked cars' outside mirrors. Many parked at curbside had their mirrors folded inward, and I believe I folded ours in too while we were driving (not cool). That is the first time I had ever thought to fold my mirrors inward. I thought those danged swingin' mirrors were for pedestrian safety. Go figure.
