what car from the last 15 years isn't, though?

I abhor Tesla and their nazi CEO but to think any other automaker is any better with regard to privacy or openness?

There's a reason all of my cars are more than 15 years old.

I don't blame you at all, though there are definitely some tradeoffs

I'm ok with needing to keep an 8track collection instead of CDs if it means that my car won't report my every sneeze to Ford or whothefuckever.

Upvote for thinking modern cars have CD players

that's as modern as I'm willing to tolerate in a car. If it has a touch screen, then I'm personally offended and whomever designed that vehicle should be flogged.
