They plan to charge you for extras that come with your car. Ford has some patented onboard technology that can make driving very uncomfortable. They have a patent to use systems in your car to deliver ads.
It’s called an In Vehicle Advertisement Presentation Systems and Methods. It uses destinations, where you are going, and how fast you drive to put the ads together. It plans to send audio ads while you are listening to music. If you go slow, it will send more ads, and it can tell if you like the ads by how hard you squeeze the steering wheel.
They will listen to you, and they might share the information if you use the screen that came with the car.
The patent doesn’t mean they will use it, but it’s probably an indication of where we are going.
and those idiots who want ‘self driving parking’ you should not be allowed to drive.
F FORD GMC DODGE who are doing nothing but stabbing hard working
loyal americans in back who bought their cars trucks despite most not
being the best made but american made with high tech high costing
GARBAGE! when they make a affordable car or truck for about $12,000
or under with just reliable engine AC nice interior seats and roll up windows
then I’ll buy another one! I have a 2000 Ford Contour that still runs great
and repairs are cheaper than most! It’s too bad the paint job was cheap
and peeling the dashboard cracked they refuse to replace it and the
power windows are a nightmare! But with prices of new cars? I’m keeping it.
Well, the speakers are still made out of paper. All it takes is a wire coat hanger for even the most unknowledgeable person.
Worse that that. Ford sells driver behavior info to insurance carriers for any 2020 or newer vehicle.
No car will ever pitch an ad to me because I won’t buy it.
Not ONLY that if Ka-MAO-la wins, Big Brother will be talking to you as you drive.
All vehicles are hackable, due to thier employment of electronic entertainment and driver control features. So … All Cars are out! I got a Subaru that Locks the Breaks up when the Computer determins a Hazard in the Road. This was standard feature and I thought , well, who is paying for it because I do not want it! I wonder how much of these Standard Sonar Equipped Highly Advanced Features are being paid for by the Government. Yes, they can shut your car off when ever they feel like it with this type of computer governance of the car.
I just want an old Beater … You cannot even find them anymore! Cash for Clunkers ate them all! Then you got to wonder about “We buy any Car,” because Government has to be funding them! Nobody is dumb enough to Just buy any Car, unless they have more money than GOD and want to eliminate inventory to price up CARS! Any of you see the Price of a New Truck, Recently? My Landscaper is Going to Cry! HOLY JESUS 40 to 100 GRAND! I recall houses going for that not too long ago! Yes, America, You will have nothing and you will not be Happy!
Some auto maker could make a fortune if they started producing cars without all of the spying and control equipment on them. There is a HUGE market out there for them and they would be a lot cheaper to produce too. But of course the damned government would harass the hell out of them.
Agree. I do not trust any of that equipment from a safety perspective. I know these sonar equipped features misfire! I had the car slam the brakes on for No Reason, Whatsoever, on the Highway! I was Shook; because that
s one hell of a thing to have happen when youre Driving. I learned how to disable it; but that cannot be trusted.I know government ( or some kid) can hack into that car and unload data or control vehicle performance. I am looking for an OLD BEATER and they are hard to find! I understand why the government did “cash for clunkers” now and they should be SUED into the Stratosphere for what they did! They took all the Inventory off the Market! This is why used cars now average 20k. And, new/used trucks are not even affordable anymore! Americans need to Make their Government Pay for this Evil. They funded and allowed this to Happen. Now, how are those poor kids trying to get to their First Job supposed to have a Car? I recall my days, when You could Save up and Buy a Car: Cash! Today … Forget it.
Its now cheaper to buy a restored classic car than to buy a new car. And with a Holley EFI installed, it will start and run as good as any new car.
True.
I agree. I look and look for a classic old ‘grandma’ car and they are not
out there or just impossible to find! My pop use to bring a used car or
truck home every few months and sell the other ones. I’ve driven just
about every car truck model made. He made me love older cars!
Incredibly dangerous for real!
I read many complaints of people who were in terrible accidents caused by this technology. Now, my contention is that I know dealerships (car industry) are so afraid of lawsuits that they never would have allowed this technology “without some serious government pushing and funding;” because it is too Dangerous!
I could not believe the technology was being allowed on such a massive level;because “being an X mecanic” I know that the systems had to be full of Dangerous Bugs! The Owners Manual is a JOKE of Possible Problems: Everything from a Dirty Windshield to low Tire Pressure can cause False Activation!! Unacceptable and Dangerous! This has been hidden; but it is common knowlege that Governemnt incentivizes this kind of Stuff just like the Magic Covid Shot Technology!
I heard there is a class action being formed up, due to accidents caused by this technology. I was lucky the Car Slammed on the Brakes when there were no cars around me. Scared the Crap out of me too! I disabled it; but hackers can still reactivate and take control. This ( MSM labled Conspiracy stuff) was never B.S. it can be done!
Dont Care, I type too fast and do not proof read. Grade School was 3 decades ago! I know it`s brakes. Typos happen. People who only write one sentence “quips” should focus on content; because content is more important and if a typo distracts you, you have larger problems.
