As well as all Fords. With both the headlights and the wipers.

I would imagine that the Probe has the more common stalk based setup because of part sharing with the MX-6.

Chevy Aveo, Mazda 3, and Chevy Cobalt over the last few months...

Both of the Chevy's were decent, though as you'd expect with a rental they seemed low on options. The only thing I really remember out of all of them is how disappointed I was in the Mazda 3. I think those things are pretty neat looking cars, especially the hatchbacks.... but the fucking thing felt like it was going to fall apart while driving it. SO MUCH road noise and shit too.

Compared to a Cobalt, yeah the Mazda is going to have more road noise because it has better handling IMO.

Chevy seems to feel that style & handling don't matter. And then they wonder why the only people who buy Cobalts are chicks who work at Red Lobster

Really the headlight switches have been there for ever on many cars. At one time, they use to be pulls instead of turn dials. Pretty freakin common.
