Nothing quite says “high-performance muscle car” like a popup ad for a Mopar Extended Warranty covering your whole center console. That’s right, Dodge Charger owners are now experiencing an exciting new feature: pop-up ads that appear every time the vehicle stops at a light. This garbage feature was spotted in the wild, take a look at how it looks.

    Return the car, stop buying a single vehicle from them. Point and laugh while we watch them go down.

    Is the only reasonable response to this.

    What I really want is the EV equivalent of an old Jeep. No antennas of any kind, no “infotainment”, no radio / music, no bluetooth support, no nothing not related to going from A to B. If I want to call somebody, I’ll pull over and use a phone. If someone calls me, they can wait until I’m not driving.

      Renault Twizy/Citroen Ami are the only ones that come to mind. That or VW e-Up with it’s radio removed. I doubt anyone would make a car the size of a Jeep with no radio anymore.

        That’s cool for your exotic collectible vehicles you take out on sunny days but I don’t know if I’d want that as my daily. Modern cars, while plagued with massive corporate bullshit, also tend to be much much safer for occupants and external parties, as well as coming with creature comforts I’m not sure I’d like giving up.

    I’ll just avoid it all together by not buying one but holy shit that would make me break my warranty so fast to jailbreak it to make that shit stop
