Backup cameras are required on all 2018 or newer vehicles in the US and Canada, so you will need at least one in the back and a small screen for that, maybe hide that screen in the review.

This imaginary basic car should also come with a double-din radio so it can be upgraded like the old days.

I wish they sold me just a double din hole with cables ready for connection. All stock radios single or double din suck ballsack for what they are charging.

With more and more cars these days, you’ve got more than radio controls in the OSD.

The steering wheel heater of all things can only be accessed through the infotainment system on my Dad’s F-150. It’s beneath the Bluetooth button.
