    Make it illegal to include touch screens, tracking, no buttons and no handles. Then I’ll consider getting a loan for one 🤷‍♂️

        We at least have the option of buying an older ICE vehicle that doesn’t include that nonsense. Although yes, that will likely come with higher maintenance and repair costs due to the age.

        Either way, the telemetry issue needs to end on vehicles entirely.

      Coincidentally, the car in the title picture is one of VW’s first EVs where physical buttons make a return, and it has regular handles. It also comes with a touch screen and tracking, though.
