Memory functions - who cares?
I see lots of references to the memory functions (seats, etc.) of the TL and other cars.
My question is how many of you actually care and/or use this feature?
Maybe I'm in the minority here but the TL is my car and my wife drives her MDX. This accounts for 95% of our driving schedule.
On the rare occasion that she drives my car she would still use my fob because I don't take the keys out of my car when it's in the garage - so it wouldn't auto-adjust for her anyway. Yes I'll use the #2 memory spot for her settings but it's such a rare event that she probably wouldn't remember about it and just manually adjust things anyway.
Just curious as to how many of you think this is a "gotta have it" feature.....I guess if you were a one car family then it would be pretty valuable.

I'm 6-2 and my wife is 5-0. Our seat and mirror settings are completely different, so the memory seats and mirrors are a really nice convenience for us.

I agree with Spud, though I do want everything in the car working.
The TL is MINE. That's why I bought my wife an Accord, so I don't have to share my toys with her.
Sam, it took my wife some time to talk me into my first car with power windows and power locks four years ago--I had grown up with the urban myth that the power windows were always the first part of the car to break down. I didn't mind rolling down my own windows or manually unlocking the doors. Now....i wonder, what the hell was I thinking?!

Re: Memory functions - who cares?
I know what you meant, and understand it's not so important to you guys beside we do like everything in TL working.
For me, I need it working 'cause of the valet parking in some occasions. If I need them to park right, I cannot force them not touching my setting.
PS. samkws, where did your Ma get S320 now? I hope they can fix that window issue for her...

I'm 6-1 and the wife is 5-4 (i think..) and we both have different seat settings, mirror, and heat settings. Not to mention music settings but so far I think I can live with my little 6 pre-set channels.
We trade vehicles every few weeks to save spending money on gas for our GMC Envoy (the wife has a shorter commute to work) and to keep each other from not getting bored with our drive to work. While I like the TL it's nice once in awhile to jump back in the truck.

I'm the only one who drives my car.
I want it working because it is part of what you pay for.
... and when you bring the car into the dealer and they move the seats or a valet, and you have to spend an hour adjusting the TEN WAY seats plus lumbar back to the way it was before, youb will not ask WHO CARES!

TL-SHAWD 6MT Rocks!
I don't let ANYBODY drive the TL, unless it's the dealer doing some repairs. My wife doesn't care to drive it either, she's afraid to wreck it. And I don't use valet parking, I park it myself, that way I know how the car was treated.
it is nice to have ALL features working though.
after all we all paid for it.
