I can’t believe we are here when it comes to purchasing a car. The concept that the car you get will have the feature built in, but you need to pay a subscription to unlock it. Who was the marketing genius that came up with this idea?

I have asked Trent to keep us informed on this one and to point out what car companies are doing this, so maybe we can avoid them!
