Jeep Introduces Pop-Up Ads That Appear Every Time You Stop
-
I've known several Jeep owners over the last decade and those that weren't buying it strictly for the 'Jeep clout' as an actual vehicle/daily driver had constant issues, while under warranty, and dealt with issues even trying to get said warranty work done.
Like that wasn't enough for me, on top of that I had a mechanic with his own shop that said he'd never touch another Jeep because of how horribly they are designed to work on. Anything from ease of access to work on the engine to bolts stripping out because they were overtorqued during assembly and made with shit metals that would sooner melt than come off in one piece.
Now this? Yeah, hope they go bankrupt. This is just as bad as BMW and their 'pay a subscription for seat warmers' bullshit.dodge in general did not do well on realiability, Thing is they have neat engineering. So I loved the grand caravan but they killed it to try and get folks to pay toyota prices for their shit and its like no. You vehicles have to be ten grand cheaper so that you amoratize the repair bills.

There's just no way I'm ever going to do this.
Honestly, I'd rather go forage for twigs and berries than interact with ads.
I haven't seen an ad in like 15 years or so (at home) and i already find them incredibly dystopian and weird. I don't really understand how people put up with that right now, but it kind of tells me that they would actually do the laola wave and yell pepsi at their screen.
I found my old VHS collection the other day and watched karate kid that i recorded as a child. I think it had 2 ad breaks who were really short, and back then we thought that it's getting a bit much with the ads. -
Be as interested in Jeeps as you like.
Saying you're part of a culture because you bought something (especially something prohibitively expensive) is not something I will do anything but mock.
I don't hear about "Mercedes Culture" or "Nissan Culture." Probably because people way into those cars understand that it isn't a culture just to be into a car.
I find it weird in general when people compliment things that i had nothing to do with. Like: nice tattoo. Thanks, i sat there for a bit and then it was done.
I had a girlfriend who treated her car like she designed and build it herself. I even made a joke once where i said exactly that and je just cold heatedly said: she does that too. Like if someone would insult her car, she would take that very personally. -
Stellantis, the parent company of Jeep, Dodge, Chrysler, and Ram,
Not just a Jeep thing.
All the brands of vehicle that have some of the worst historical reliability!

Old cars are gonna be so expensive.

Well as long as it's obvious to you, because it wasn't obvious to me.
Well if thats what you really meant then i applaud your ability to leverage how obtuse you are. It certainly seems to have proven you dont need to be clear about what you are saying to win an argument on lemmy.

You could have asked for clarification rather than just been aggressive this entire time, but your insults are noted.

Your first reply demonstrates your single-minded goal to "win" rather than clarifying your position. You milked the misunderstanding because thats why youre on here.

Thank you for telling me what my goal is. It's something else I was entirely unaware of.
And then I milked the misunderstanding too! Wow!
Tell me, how do you know all these things about me that I am completely in the dark about?

This is all I need to never even look at a Jeep... how pathetic can these idiots get?
This, exactly this.
The fact that they would even consider this rules them out for me forever. -
I completely crossed off all GM cars due to lack of CarPlay. I am boycotting Tesla. I don’t trust BMW because they tried to make heated seats a subscription. Now Jeep and Stellantis?
Something to consider...
Elon may be going down a conservative rabbit hole these days, but this is the sort of thing Tesla would never ever ever do. And things like using the telematic system to sell your location and speed to insurance companies. Never happened on a Tesla.
You may not like the guy, but the cars are fucking solid. -
I heard the new 2025 model wallops you in the bollocks every time you pull the parking brake.
FAKE NEWS!!! Why would you want to pull an ancient lever mechanism if you can do it in a few taps on the touch screen. Sure, unless you have a premium subscription, you'll have to watch a short video from our partners, tailored individually just for you.

Yup, Toyota has been solid for me. Though admittedly, they’re also one of the worst in regards to data privacy; You should assume that every single thing you do in a Toyota is being recorded and sent back to a Toyota server for ad/tracking purposes.
Lol what? Ur car got internet?
Just pull the OnStar /gps fuse -
Uncle Teddy would definitely not approve of this.
Nor cousin luigi...

Sorry, the question is how i can see? Or how you cant?

You tell me! I didn't know any of this, so clearly I don't know what questions to ask. You're the expert on me here, not me.

I dont think you form questions. I think things just come straight out of your head onto gods upcoming commandments list.

Then you can certainly come up with the questions for me.
Unless you're planning on telling me you don't know how to use a very basic Lemmy client properly in this thread and pretend I apologized to you here too.

That does seem to be where this is headed given sync's layout and your last-word complex.
