One thing about the #toyota #bz4x (and probably lots of other Toyotas) is that the “driver assistance” features are an alphabet soup of corporate euphemisms and weird expressions.

Part of the reason I’m sitting on my front porch on a sunny afternoon reading my car’s owner manual is that the dash just shows these acronyms. I can turn these features on and off, but I need to know what they do.

It’s stuff like RCTA or rear cross traffic alert (“rcta? Damn near killeda!”) and PKSB, the parking support brake. First I have to know the words, then I have to know what they do. THEN maybe I can decide if I want it on or off. It’s about 12 individually settable features.
