    Ok but how about a dumbass hatchback subcompact that runs on electricity. I’m sick and tired of “smartphone on wheels” give me car play and it’s all the smartphone I need. I’m perfectly happy keeping all that shit on my phone and having the car be for transportation

      then how would they spy on you and steal your data? i’m afraid your best option is to convert a dumb car into electric

        Seriously I wonder how expensive it would be to do that to my fit. And while I’m at it I could replace my frustrating Honda infotainment system with the one that actually works and nobody needs to upgrade upon because all anyone wanted was their phone to display there.

        Like, I don’t even know how we wound up in a position where “my car tracks my sex life” is both normal and unavoidable and nobody is stopping it

          last i checked there are companies that convert old cars to electric for a minimum of 10k, but the motor has like 20 hp and range is less than 100 km. i bet you can get decent specs for 20k.

            There’s a german company that does that for 12 to 15k, with range of around 250km
