I suppose that could work for anything, even spouses.Ahaaah, this is why I end up with machines that have so many features because I will not compromise on certain things like button holes and a few other features.
However, I object to the way that some brands bundle the features on their cars for example one middle I was interested in.
The model was available in 3 versions. I wanted most features in the middle band but was not interested in 5 of the pointless features, but did want 2 features only available on the TOL version. I was not interested in any of the other unnecessary features of that model and was not willing to pay the extra (ridiculous amount) for the TOL Model. Rear Parking sensors are not a TOL feature in my opinion and I object to the manipulative bundling of features to get people to buy more than what they need in order to get practically useful features over unnecessary 'luxury' features. It felt like being forced.
Fortunately for me I'm not particularly brand loyal so the result was I did not buy any of the models and went elsewhere. I'll bet that none of my feedback ever reached the people who make some of these nonsensical decisions.
