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 absolute garbage feature was spotted in the wild, take a look here.

I really fucking dislike that you used Hyundai when they are like the one company that still does cool fucking shit at prices normal people can afford.

Is a forced subscription to use basic features included in this supposed "cool fucking shit"?

Because they do that, now I won't tell you how to live but I would not categorize selling basic features back to me as "cool fucking shit"
