I tend to think of myself, for better or worse, as the kind of guy who reads owner’s manuals. But I don’t always do it, and last week it left me looking a little foolish.

So, yes, a concession. Of all the new technologies I gained access to when I upgraded from my 2003 GMC to the 2019 XC90, a tire pressure monitoring system wasn’t the one that most excited me. Glad to have it, sure. But it’s hardly as sexy as, say, Apple CarPlay or Pilot Assist.
