I would love an EV with all the bells and whistles of an early 1990s vehicle. ABS, AC, and an mp3 player plugged in to the tape deck.

No spyware, touch screens, smart anything, automatic anything, no ultra-high-beams that shoot retina-burning light.

Hmmm, I got an old square body work truck I'm eyeing for an Edison conversion some time in the future and doing exactly that. Plug in hybrid, so most days, I wouldn't even need to start the engine.
