Love your video and especially your humor! Mine is a daily driver and was always going to be a daily driver. It rocks! The Android Auto is the car's worst feature (so unreliable, not going to get into it). With a little ingenuity I can get 2 sets of golf clubs in the back! There is no way I am putting in frozen or refrigerated groceries in the rear (way too hot). There are videos out there to take the interior of the trunk out, put some heat tape on the underside and that helps, but I'm thinking that bad boy engine needs to keep cool and if you do that it won't dissipate the heat that well so I don't know what to do about that. One thing that really annoys me is that the mirrors on my 2LT are supposed to fold in automatically, but that only happens when you lock the car by wasting time reaching into your pocket for the key fob and then lock it. When I turn off the engine it should do it! Or at least when I press the lock button on the door before exiting. Maybe GM can fix that with a software update? Android Auto should shut off too! Gerard, I say too bad with neighbors baby and start your baby outside so you don't die of the fumes! When need you around to make these great entertaining and informative videos!

So on the rear camera view, the reason it makes you cross-eyed is because your eyes are focused at distance and, when you look at what's in a mirror, your eyes still have to focus at the distance those objects are at. To see what's in the camera screen clearly, you have to look AT the mirror instead of THROUGH it. If you practice changing your eyes' focal length when you glance up at your mirror, you'll get used to it faster and it'll become more natural. It's like looking out your office window and switching to a computer screen.
