Stellantis only wants to make muscle cars for penis-free Boomers and a shitty van that people would rather wait 14 months on a Toyota waiting list than buy. Ford just makes plastic trucks for fat people cosplaying as contractors. Same with GM with the Shitverado.
But BYD tried to make electric buses in the 'shwa...it was a complete disaster. Even Oshawa didn't buy them.
Importantly, neither Stellantis, Ford, or GM wants to make cars here anymore. Like I said, I'm not putting a ton of hope on BYD panning out, but a paycheck is a paycheck.
Called it. Bring it and (our gov't) let our unions do their job. In fact make their job easier.
Yeah but I won’t run that tech, so can it run without an antenna or internet access?
Don't quote me on this but I believe they only started making over-the-air updates an option in 2025. It's not required AFAIK.
All new cars have spyware, GM OnStar is the worst, they even upload your weight from the airbag sensor.
Me: Why are GM owners sitting on their airbag—oh.
Yeah, and try opting out lol. It's designed to be impossible.
