Yeah I'm made about these unrepairable and phone home cars.

I got a 2010s car that's dumb and it works.

I really want a SUV with adaptive cruise control. Preferably hybrid 4WD. I'm shit out of luck for privacy.

    I have a 2016 Subaru with eyesight (which includes adaptive cruise).

    It lost its phone home when they killed 3g which I’m happy about.

    Less happy about when the camera isn’t happy, like when there’s a salty windshield or direct sunlight, it fully disables all forms of cruise control. So if there’s ever a hardware problem with the camera system, it’s going to not have any cruise control until fixed (if parts will even be available).
