And yet people want electric cars
Newer ICE cars are spyware with wheels, too. Nothing to do with the drivetrain.
You will get no argument from me. However, they still have a engine that you can work on. Electric cars aren’t know for there reparability or longevity. Gas cars still have some issues but they are much more “physical” if that males sense. You can put gas in your car but you need to charge your electric with a charging station.
I think there is a good reason that we moved to gas. It also annoys me that old drivable cars are getting crushed.
Clearly you haven’t worked on new Dodge vehicles as they have completely locked their engine diagnostic behind a massive paywall that Dodge can revoke if they feel like to leaving you unable to work on that engine. VW, Merc, Volvo, BMW have all been calling home for the past 10-15 years now as a mandatory way to re-enable ice engines. Ford and Chevy are also looking to (if they haven’t already) locking their internal CPU behind a paywall as well.
TL;DR - All new cars (ev or ice) are getting “features” that lock you out of “working on the engine”
Well that’s why I drive an old car
Yea electric vehicles are so unreliable that dealerships are all salivating over having captive customers in their service plans.
