"Customers in the U.S. will have to wear gloves when the temperature
drops below freezing in the Northeast, Rocky Mountains, and the
Northwest."

Um, who the hell goes outside when it is so cold outside without gloves?
Freezing is hardly so cold to need gloves, or a heated steering wheel.
If it's sub-zero, you'll have on gloves before you even reach your car,
like donning them when inside just before going outside.  You'll already
have your gloves on when you get into your car.  Oh my God, those will
interfere with using all those gimmicks inside the car.  Yeah, we
certainly need to maintain the loss of focus on using the gimmicks
instead of having drivers perform their main function: drive the car.
