I have to pay $200 to get the software in my car updated and its crap.

Why do you have to pay $200?

Because it is a "dealer service" procedure.

BMW wanted to charge me €450 for an update for my navigation CD. That was around 2004 or so. Oh, and around €1000 for an iPod connector. The nerve of these guys.

Ah that makes sense, I thought he meant for a Tesla.
