Electric vehicles aren't the problem, the fact that they are really expensive large computers with wheels that phone home constantly and track your every move, can be disabled remotely by the manufacturer, require mobile apps that track you and phone home constantly is the problem.

And they need OS updates to patch potentially fatal bugs.

Modern fossil fuel cars are unfortunately no different...

But you can buy an old fossil fuel car.

For now. In twenty years time the current fleet of newish cars will be the old junk.

My family drives 20 year old cars daily.

I like old cars, but the point is there will be a point at which getting a car that is as uncomplicated as a 1990s Japanese sedan will end. In 20 years time you'd have to deal with all sorts of electric and software issues.

It used to be that you could just take out the cassette player and insert a Bluetooth radio, for instance. In modern cars everything is integrated software and it sure as hell won't be maintained by car manufacturers after 10 years at most.
