Standard automotive convenience features

It annoys me when I find a feature in one car that isn't found on others. Let's make a list of standard features you'd like to find in a car. I'll go first.

  1. power windows and door locks
  2. auto up/down windows
  3. gas door that locks and unlocks with the driver's door
  4. place on gas door to store gas cap while pumping gas
  5. auto tilt down mirrors while in reverse
  6. ability to downshift and upshift on an automatic trans (useful when going down steep hills)
  7. light in the glove box
  8. folding rear seat
  9. TPMS that shows pressure at all 4 tires
  10. arm rest
  11. lumbar adjustment in driver's seat
  12. rear HVAC vents that you can open/close
  13. use the navigation system while in motion
  14. voice dialing
  15. oil pressure gauge
  16. oil temp gauge
  17. accurate "water" temp gauge
  18. transmission temperature gauge
  19. charging system gauge
  20. keyless entry
  21. push button start
  22. traffic information without a subscription
  23. hood struts
  24. easily accessible oil filter and drain plug
  25. low washer fluid warning light
  26. oil level light
