Today’s cars and trucks are modern marvels. We used to get excited when a car had an extra set of cup holders, but today’s amenities are extraordinary: trunks that open with the wave of a foot, refrigerated compartments to keep drinks cool, and built-in screens on headrests to keep the kiddies entertained.
