Man, I really feel like GM had been doing a lot of things right. Every manufacturer has their ups and downs, pros and cons, but they seemed like they were really trying to innovate.

But then they had to go and remove Android Auto and CarPlay and, with a straight face, try to tell us it was for our convenience. Instead, behind our backs, they admitted it was for their data-grubby fetish.

Fuck off, GM.

And fuck you for destroying the faith and hope I had in your journey. The goodwill you lost from me and others will take some time to rebuild.

So, in the meantime, who cares if this EV is affordable or not. It has no spot in my garage.
