I didn’t see this one: I’ll never buy a car made after 2011 for privacy reasons. (As well as repairability)
It seems like my best bet is to retrofit an older petrol car. I’d spend a lot, probably even more than what a new car costs in cash, but I haven’t found a great ev swap plan yet, so hopefully in the future. I’ve saved a couple of totaled cars from the scrapyard so far.
I’d honestly probably spend upwards of $100k in cash on a privacy-first new EV with features I want, but apparently the car industry doesn’t want to make a product for me. (Not the slate truck)
My dream car is one of those UN spec Toyota Land Cruisers that can run on any dirt water that resembles diesel and can be repaired with a roll of duct tape, a large spanner and a hammer in the middle of a jungle.

They don’t meet any emissions requirements though so they’re fully illegal in any western countries 😅
