I don't have a "modern" vehicle but automated following distance is the only thing I feel like I'm missing out on. Everything else feels like I'm dodging bullets.

Unfortunately not upgrading means missing out on improvements to physical safety in the event of a crash.

You might be able to add that feature yourself. Comma/open pilot looks really cool

Auto headlights switching is nice as well. We have it on the Lexus.

Is it really that onerous to turn headlights on manually? That's not a feature that I envy.

It switches automatically from low beam to high beam. Very useful as I don't have to continously fiddle with the switch. The auto lights and daylight running lights are standard on all new cars. I love it. I never forget to turn on the lights. Even if the illumination from streetlights is sufficient to see, we also have to be seen by ohers.
