Wrong you are just needing something to be outraged over. New to tech ? You paid for your phone but still gotta pay to use it. What about your computer ? Paid for but still pay to use it. Its nothing new. We are not talking about subscription for air conditioning. We are talking about new maps and roads and features so that what you paid for works well. Sheesh.
Your splitting hairs and have missed the point. Yes, you buy the phone and you pay to use someones network to make calls, and it has said features. If you want an app you pay for it. if it comes with the app at said price, they should not be charging 2 yrs later and making your phone have less features that you paid for originally with that app. BTW BMW was charging to use YOUR heated seats that YOU paid for. Air conditioning is not far away. Toyota was making owners pay monthly to remote start THEIR truck with a feature they paid for. We are not renting these vehicles...we own them. My Mercedes has lane keep, distronic cruise, auto stop, ect....which were features when buying the car. Doesnt cost a penny driving down the road. They will push as far as they can. If you accept it, there will more of it. Bmw backed up and so is Toyota...because people were "outraged". Yet GM thinks after people make a car payment, and maintenance plus fuel per month...they want to pay up 114 dollars for features and apps..........I wonder why millennials use Uber and think older people are nuts for owning cars they cant drive 24 hours a day?? My millennial neighbor, great kid, thinks its nuts to pay for 100% of a car that you only use infrequently. Said he'd rather rent a truck for the roadtrip, or take an Uber...its cheaper!! I almost agree with him. But then there is the freedom part of that scenario. No need to be condescending with your "outraged" and "new to tech" comments...thats classless. You can give a viewpoint and disagree easily yet you chose otherwise.
I had a similar setup with my current X7 and it is really good. Doesn’t change lanes by itself, I have to double move my turn signal to do it. I also couldn’t get a vehicle without ACC.
I think you missed the point. 'They' will not be doing anything. No need to be afraid. Toyota was charging for enhanced remote features. Your remote could still start the car. Lots of misinformation here. Seems like the mo around here.
It's great and fully functional. And "Free".
There is no comparison IMO, SC is a whole different ballgame. Adaptive cruise will slow down and apply the brakes as well as speed up when in traffic. The SC is a true "Hands Free" driving and is even better when in stop and go traffic. There is lot of reduced fatigue when not having to keep your hands on the wheel on long road trips. What is nice about having SC is that you get both the "Adaptive and the SC" options, so you can use either to your liking. There are pros and cons to everything when we purchase different options, some like bare bones and other like all the options. I am glad mine came with SC and will always be using it on trips. If I need too I can also use the "Adaptive Cruise"
