Which side is the "Fire" button for the sidewinders going to be on?

That's in the middle when you apply the horn

Let me preface this by saying let's not let this become another fuel door thread.

But I was looking at an interior photo of the P4 and noticed the cruise control buttons are on the left side of the wheel, with the right side unpopulated - does that annoy anyone else?
I feel like all the cars I've driven recently (personal and rentals) are the opposite, with cruise controls on the right and menu/radio/phone controls on the left.

It doesn't have much in terms of practical implications, and I know it's just the prototype, but that would annoy me on the production model.

I like this dash but I still think the original cruise control is easier to use and already has standardized controls everyone will be familiar with, A pedal on the floor is pressed with ones right foot and by observing a guage on the dash one can control their speed. Enhanced cruise control gives the driver a 2nd pedal for the left foot and allows drivers to enjoy selecting their own gear as speed changes. This setting is best used on winding country roads. And we are up to 14 posts on this already.

Wow there are a lot on the right LOL I'm just sooooo used to it on the left. Doesn't matter what side, I'd get used to it either way.

Interestingly both my Prius and my Grand Caravan have the same extra lever for cruise on the steering wheel, out from the-backside, to the lower right, inside. If you get what I mean.

Don't look for much cruising the first 6 months. It will be stop and go showing off your new toy.

Actually, I meant to type another gas cap location thread in the works, but got distracted!
