    I just wish Mazda had a good EV. Their EVs just aren't that good at the moment. I leased a BMW iX a few months ago, but my old car (which I still have) is a 2012 Mazda 3. Love the EV experience and I don't think I'll buy a gas powered car ever again.

    Any pure EV from Mazda is actually a rebadged Chinese car but I forget which brand. It's basically the only way Mazda could sell EVs in China and that's what they offer to the European market as well. In North America, I know we only have the PHEV variants but no EV only.

      This is why used cars are so dang expensive, it seems like automobile quality has been in a free fall since 2008. The end user experience gets worse while the price goes up.

        I wonder how hard it would be to make an open source car brain that can be a drop-in replacement for the commercial ones?

          It's actually part of the Sirius XM package. So I think that all you have to do is not bother with Sirius XM.

            This is why you need government. This is why you need regulations.

            Corporations are evil pieces of shit that would have you watch ads without seatbelts and without air bags.

            They'd grind you and your entire family into a powder if it made them a few bucks.

            Fuck Jeep and their shitty tin cars.

            This is why we need government that isn't in the pocket of corporations.

            We need something like lawmakers having to disclose their tax information annually. If you want to be in office and make millions you should be willing to put your morals on the review table.

                This is the way.

                Add in a magnetic charger phone mount and you're golden in my opinion.

                A previous owner mounted one where the cigarette lighter was. I'm going to replace it soon since it doesn't really fit - I can't charge my phone in the holder.

                Maybe I'll finally learn FreeCAD and print my own.

                    Thanks! The next car on the list was a 2004 Honda Civic Si hatchback manual.

                    I honestly would have been happy with either car. Having so much fun with the Porsche though.

                              If you slam on the brakes it makes the ad extra large

                                That's newer then I would go but yeah at least Honda seems to be behind on the complete shit curve.

                                  they would have you watch ads without seatbelts and without air bags.

                                  No, they would require you purchase these because their business can’t sell their products without them, but they’d make you pay a subscription for them to keep working, and when you stop paying the subscription, the car stops turning on until you pay your monthly airbag and seatbelt fee.

                                    The TVs aren’t a bad value. Gotta get back the the jailbreaking days. If someone released a custom firmware for my Roku tv that made it dumb I would use it.

                                      Holy crap I feel old now. Since when? I'm still driving a car without a touch screen, and that's never going to change.

                                      I'm not sure how long.

                                      My older car (2012 Mazda 3) didn't have a touch screen. I replaced the radio with a touch screen Pioneer one that supports Android Auto. I'd definitely recommend doing that! It's nice having Google Maps on an older car. The third-party radios tend to be better than the OEM ones (they have to be, otherwise nobody would buy them) and I don't think Pioneer does data collection of any sort.
