In the end, the KIA car company made its cars into subscription models, I really hate this because in the end the car we buy with our own money doesn't feel like it belongs to us. Should we finally buy an old school car ? so as not to be affected by this subscription models or is there a way to crack the software installed in it ?

I love all the comments saying "yeah well that stuff isn't free someone has to maintain it"

YOU'RE PAYING 100K FOR A FUCKING CAR

That's the payment. That's what they get their money from.

Wanting more in perpetuity is fucking stupid no matter what the excuse is.

A 2024 Kia Telluride is right around $50,000 USD (fully loaded specs), but I get what you're saying with regards to vehicles in general.

Like BMW and Tesla having "creature comforts" behind subscriptions.

Tesla doesn't have "creature comforts" behind subscriptions. They're 1-time payments.
