Jeep Introduces Pop-Up Ads That Appear Every Time You Stop

Also a great way for me to never consider looking at a Ram, Chrysler, Dodge, or whatever the fuck else this corporation makes.

I don't know the whole story. Real debrid is french, and they released a new law or something and real debrid all debrid and mega debrid just stopped working. Except for the thing no one uses it for.

Imagine pulling up to a red light, checking your GPS for directions, and suddenly, the entire screen is hijacked by an ad. That’s the reality for some Stellantis owners. Instead of seamless functionality, drivers are now forced to manually close out of ads just to access basic vehicle functions.
Oh HELLLLL no. I hope my 2012 Subaru will last until I'm either dead or too old to drive. I don't even want to have these damn screens for the usual shit you have to do on them. I want to be able to do everything with physical controls, no eavesdropping, and no dependence on a fucking app or touchscreen to operate anything in my car! I will drive my car while wearing mittens! shakes fist

Maybe we just throw an ad on the windshield... Like a little one... Off to the side?

Yeah, but other than a hybrid, fuel efficiency plateaued at some point before bells and whistles started being added to a surveillance system.

If you do want to learn a guy on YouTube by the name of mangojelly has been extremely inciteful for me

They'll make it cheaper for awhile to justify it to the public and government and then slowly raise the price so that you're paying full price AND watching ads.

Please drink a verification can.

Aw yeah, 14mpg, two distinct oil leaks, and cabins full of mold because the vintage weather strips failed forty years ago. (I drive a late 90s pickup and am acutely aware of the tradeoffs that come with older cars, even ones that are maintained relatively well.)

Yes, But this is my point. You are sharing a video from "CAR TV" who's tag line is "Watch New Model Cars With Pleasure
" Its very much selling the idea that newer is safer, but the data only shows a slight increase in safety (and nothing on rate of crashes old vs new). In the video they show the two cars crashing but no data at all, the 1998 one from what I can see looks non fatal (seatbelt held, engine block not in lap, steering wheel not impaling chest) but not only do they say "The test showed the driver of the older Corolla would likely have died as a result of the 64km/h collision" they also don't show that data. Even when looking for sources I get almost no where, this stinks.
Oh and in the little write up they say "ROAD safety experts have renewed calls for drivers to get behind the wheel of newer cars after an unprecedented crash test revealed shocking results." Why do they write ROAD in all caps? Is this a special interest group? A lobbyist? No idea I can't even check since there are no sources!
I am not saying newer cars don't have more safety built in, I am saying its a matter of finding what level you are comfortable in and to not get suckered into needless fear over your cars safety rating while the average driver does not even maintain their car's brakes.

I think anything 2008 and before is kinda a sweet spot for car driving quality. After the subprime crisis its like all the car makers went to shit.
