I think I'll keep my 2002 low-end, manual transmission Ford Ranger a

I'm liking new cars less and less...<br>

<pre wrap="">When you're in a "fly-by-wire" car, the computer is between you and the
ignition/transmission. If the task that pays attention to driver input
drops core, there is no way to "turn off the ignition, put it in neutral,
put it in low gear, etc."
