The Tesla Cybertruck has done what very few modern-day vehicles have been able to achieve – become one of the most recognizable cars on the road. However, Tesla has a major issue on its hands: Its angular electric pickup isn't selling in the numbers it had hoped for.

I'm also not a fan of the fact that, like all Teslas (if not all new cars in general) it's full of proprietary spyware with bad UX and assorted enshittification. That's the thing that stopped me from being interested in Teslas from the very beginning, even before Musk came out as a Nazi.

Can I please buy a car that's not smart? I don't need my car spying on me.

Yes: you can buy a used car. That's my strategy, anyway: I'm hoarding cars from the '90s. 🙃

moped car is the closest i know of, and honestly a big part of why there's no smart stuff is because they're built so cheaply
