Tesla is going with buttons on the steering wheel instead of a stick to the left of the wheel

Its even worse than that. The buttons are smooth surface (like a touch screen) with haptic feedback. These are truly a horrible idea:

If I had one of these Tesla cars I'd look into retrofitting the stalks back in.

    Up for right and down for left. Yeah, that makes fuckin' sense. Did they take their inspiration from the keyboard on the Apple 2GS?

    It would have been smarter to zip tie the turn signal switch assembly from a 1980's motorcycle onto the steering wheel. At least on a motorcycle switch left means left and right means right (and center is cancel).
