I do, yes. It'd also be nice to know things like state of charge/how much gas I got, whats the car temperature now - tell me when it reaches X, look at my car's cameras. There are plenty of compelling use-cases.

There was a time when vehicles had dedicated gauges for vital info like operating temp, oil pressure, rpms, etc. so it's not like solutions don't already exist that don't involve a fucking tablet in the middle of the dash. Backup cameras I'll give you though.
