    I've been trying to find the tow/haul button on this rental Chevy Traverse for two days.

    Maybe the Chevy lovers hate them too!!

    I can't believe the truck doesn't just know that I want it to be in Tow/Haul mode. Like, can't there be a mindreading App for that or something??

    Remember the old days? I don't even know how we used to roll down windows with that ridiculous hand cranking mechanism. Might as well just made the windows not roll down.

    There working on it Mark! My first car was a 63 Rambler with vacuum windshield wipers. They were so slow I had to reach out the window and give them a little help. Good thing I have long arms! I don't have a problem with the tow haul, I'd be happy if I could just push one button one time to turn off the trac every time I start my truck.

    My 14' Silverado I traded for my Tundra had crank windows and no keyless entry just a basic key. Lady at the dealership went to look it over for the appraisal and was beside herself that she had to use a key to open the door and roll the window down by hand...lol.

    Long arms come in handy alot. A Tesla is a cool concept, I'm just not sure it would be as fun as driving a Tundra. There are many limitations to driving a smart car....like you don't get to help the wipers;)
