Rules are for NEW cars. I drive a 2001 and 2005. Newest I would even consider is 2008 or so. I’ve always driven something 20 years old.
I also own a 1950 and 1953 trucks that can be set on S-10 frames and drive trains. Antiques are usually exempt because the rich own and drive them.

I will not have all that new OEM spy tech in my vehicle.
More incentive to get that old blazer and Jeeps back to roadworthy as I can afford them.
