Of George Carlin's "Five Words You Can Never Say on Television," the forum software only censors the first half of the fifth word (the one that also refers to a male chicken or pulling back the hammer on a firearm.)

I know of a forum that censors part of the word 'grapefruit.'

Here is how you could make most everyone happy:

Push button start/stop with the fob docked in the dash. Several luxury imports do this, and it works great.

No passive entry crap. Way too problematic/DBS prone. If you want to kill a few batteries and get to know your local flat bed driver, get a car with a passive entry system.

Just put a simple lock and unlock button on the fob. Once in the car, dock the fob in a dash slot, push the button to start. This way the key fob is always docked in the dash while the car is running. No chance of it walking away, getting lost... getting uncomfortable in your pocket so you put it in a gym bag that get's locked in the trunk....

If people would use just decent language, something I think most people have forgotten there are better words and non offensive words to say the same things, there would be no need for censoring posts.
I think it is just a show of lack of intelligent thought. Makes people sound uneducated when they use gutter language.

if you think about, we all are having really big expectations for chevy. I honestly think they are being like Apple(mac) as in they will put a new feature in the car every year so they will have more buyers, thats just me though.

It's one of those features that you can't really appreciate until you have experienced it on a previous car. That's why people don't care about it,
but most of us who have another car that has the feature can appreciate it and think it would be cool to have it on the camaro.

I wish my camaro had it.
