This is a mixed bag. Do I want to pay an extra $1000 for a feature I don’t want? If I’m driving the car for only 2 years $10/mn is cheaper. If I’m laid off and conserving cash I can turn off extra stuff and then reable after getting hired again. Way too many scenarios to know whether this is good/bad without knowong specific use and implementation cases.
Exactly. Maybe it would bring down the MSRP a little bit if you had to subscribe to some of the extras. The last several vehicles I've owned came with cruise control. I'm sure it was an upcharge but it's a feature that I've just never used. Same for heated seats.
