I 100% refuse to buy a car unless there's a jailbrake option. I don't want to get an update while I'm trying to get to work
But its just 20min to update bro. Any you will get all the juicy spyware and tracking.
I have a 2004 F-150 and a 2002 Mitsubishi Spyder. Think I'll just hang on to those.
Depending on the country you might not be able to do that. In some countries you have strict emission guidelines where cars older than 5 years need to be certified that they output emission below a certain threshold. It's good for the environment, but if you live in a place that has shit public transportation it can force you to get new cars and spend much more than required to have a car that suits your needs.
You should be ok with up to 2018 models
You wouldn't brick a car...
Same, which is why all* my cars are 15-35 years old and I have no real plans to replace any of them, except possibly with different similarly-old ones.
* I own too many cars.
I have one car, it's 20 years old and I've had it since 2009. Sometimes I look around and think, maybe it's time to get one not covered in scratches with a dent in the back? But then I see posts like this and feel incredibly grateful this little banger has kept me on the road for so long.
You could always have your scratches and dent repaired, or learn to do it yourself as a fun hobby. (I'm not joking, by the way: I've done some body repair and painting on some of my cars, and it's kinda fun!)
Yeah you're right I could probably do this! But I'm not sure I care enough about its appearance 😆
