Or a portable ‘electric fence’, either to just drop places along the road, or amuse yourself while riding your bicycle.

They can’t resist. They love to control and take away freedoms. It’s obvious that “driverless “ cars will be controlled from a central computer. Initially, it will be “for your own safety “. A few years later you’re paying a mileage tax and the car decides if you are allowed to make this trip.

Will NEVER BUY such garbage. Either I am in control of the vehicle, or I am not. If it takes control away, I don’t want to drive it.

Waiting for the day when the Tesla network is hacked and every Tesla is sent to the same parking spot behind a deli in New Jersey.

A handicap parking spot, at that.

Sounds great.. I’ve got a 2008 F250, 6” lift on 37” tires. Has the 5.4l and 9.2mpg. Just turned 110k miles and sits in the garage most of the time. Looks great but under powered. Been thinking about the Ford Godzilla 7.3.!!

Ford made a 12% stake in the Rivian EV startup and LOST $5.4 billion in its investment.

You can also go the other way and turn your 1990 Cadillac Sedan DeVille into a mobile device that slows down new vehicles. What fun!

You are positively EVIL! ROFL! I like you. You think like I do.

My Toyota Avalon stops dinging after about 1 minute.
