I remember the time... you got a car, switched on the radio, drove around. Had fun...

I'm looking to buy an older truck to drive until EV infrastructure is better where I live (and ideally we get more small EV trucks), and my mom was like "you won't have as much technology in an older truck you know."

Yeah, that's actually a good thing, I hate the weird proprietary tech in my 2019 car and would rather have a basic ass radio I can either use or easily rip out and replace without dismantling half the car.

Buying a car and then having to jailbreak it? Man, shit is wild when you accept living in a place that requires owning a car.
