Suburban Dad Manifesto

After driving dozens of cars, there are some features I’ve come to love in many of them: Navigation systems (some of them, anyway), driver’s seats that push back when the car stops, things like that. But there’s also a string of relatively inexpensive features that I’ve come to love so much I think no car should be built without them. For many of these, the initial research and development costs may have been high, but they’ve paid for themselves by now. Check out the video above to see what’s made the list so far. I’m still working on it, so if there are items you think should be included, comment below.

what a waste of my time

Meet the new Chrysler spokesman.

Most of these items make life easier but aren't exactly necessary and they cost as options.

Here's the Suburban Dad's take on the Aspen originally.

His family wasn't very high on it. And it certainly isn't a favorite among most of the staff as a driving vehicle. But you can't argue it has a lot of features in it that seem to be up this demographic's alley.
