    We have subscription services in cars now.

    I’m betting it’ll happen either way.

    It’s a fucking stupid future.

        And this is one reason why I hate modern cars. But then again, there’s no alternative, and that sucks.

            Maybe for now, but there’s fewer and fewer around. In ten-twenty years time it will be hard to find a 90s car with reasonable mileage.

          Looks like tesla offers a premium subscription for most things and a separate one for the fancy cruise control… So I assume you have an old model or your being a troll?

              Sounds like you’re the one confused about it yourself.

              Weird, my Tesla has 0.

                …no actually I’m not confused at all. What part of that confused you? Or are you just being a troll?

                  When another person had car subscriptions, it was meaningless. But you having none of them is supposed to mean something. Makes no sense.

                    What makes no sense is that you think the other person having 7 subscriptions is meaningless in a conversation about subscriptions.

      Exactly–and someone had to make the unpopular decision to announce it and weather the first round of criticisms. They also will be the first to profit from said stupid idea when they roll it out and the dumbs line up to buy it for fomo reasons or whatever
