Lucky for me I can’t afford a new car anyway. I’ll just keep driving my unconnected car.

I will drive my 2013 Honda Fit until the wheels fall off. I love it and with a $20 Bluetooth adapter, it has all the amenities I could need. I think it's insane that people are driving around with a tablet that controls their heat and radio.

Honda Fits are amazing little cars. I only would want them to be able to be modernized to have some of the advanced safety features like Lane keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, and automatic emergency braking like in the newer cars, but would require a redesign and additional sensors added to the windshield area.

I'm able to fit a double sided mattress box spring in it which is insane for a subcompact car. It's a mini minivan.

I'm so glad I don't have lane assist.

But yeah, I pass Honda minivans and think they're fits.
