I personally want a modern car that won't gravely injure me in even the most modest of car accidents but one that doesn't have inane software-controlled lockout features.
That was the logic we used, bought an Explorer ST instead of a BMW since they've shown the desire to charge to unlock stuff already in the car. I'm sure Ford will do it at some point if it takes off but so far they haven't. Now the connected features on the car I'm not a huge fan of but they're not limiting thankfully.
