      I test drove one when they first came out. The salesperson was telling me about the continuously variable transmission, and how revolutionary it was.

      “It’s a new technology? From an American car company? In it’s first model year? Ok, no thank you.”

        “New technology” is just asking for trouble. Always wait till 3rd or 4th gen if you want all the kinks worked out, especially if it is something expensive like a car.
