I was excited for EVs but it looks like I'll be driving gasoline dinosaurs for the rest of my life.
Yup. Fearing the same as well. All I'm asking for is a car, not a Windows computer.
Sadly it seems our best bet would be to build it ourselves.
I'm imagining cars like Framework laptops and you can install an open source OS of your own choice to operate it.
I literally had this thought the other day. I feel like car guys would love it too. A potential untapped market

Aptera supports Right to Repair.,
Edison Motors has preorders for their pickup truck conversion kits as well if you need something bigger.
I like Aptera and have a couple of them pre-ordered but that's nothing but a promise. They have plans to IPO. Zero chance their consumer-friendly approach survives that for very long.
Only slightly higher chance that they actually get to market too... Fingers crossed for 2025.
They promised first deliveries before the end of 2022. The only thing they showed up with was a new prototype. There was no explanation given. No acknowledgement. They since pushed the delivery dates back 3 more times, each with no acknowledgement or explanation. Now they say late 2025. I am not hopeful.
I wonder WHEN that "right" has been TAKEN?
Lets wake up for fuck sake and push back!
Right, like if I want a tablet in my car I will just get a dash mount arm and throw whatever current gen tablet on it. I don't need it as a part of the car.
Are you retarded? How would you see where you are going if you can't see.
What?
