You don't need to go that far back. None of my cars have any kind of connectivity, the newest one is 2014. I'll never own a car with any kind of remote connectivity, the risk is far too large to ignore.
I particularly hate the 'modern' trend of have a large touch screen tablet instead of all the knobs and buttons.
My own group of car buddies, pretty much all we do is shop and trade 2010s vehicles now, rather than buy new.
But can I please have an electric car, all the bells and whistles, that I take to a dealer/mechanic to get upgraded?
Maybe once a year?
If that, and at my choice....
That or earlier, yes.
My last car will probably be my current car from 2013, which I have replaced the engine in, and plan on replacing the transmission in when that goes, as well as other parts as needed. Rust is basically what is going to kill it and I can stave that off for a long time.
When that day comes, it won't really matter. I live near a quarter mile from a train station, 200 feet from a bike trail that connects to my city's bike network, and 50 feet from a bus stop. No need for a car really ever. Rentals exist for car needs every few months, but there are usually other options.
The key for me was to not be dependent on any singular mode of transportation and to have redundancy so that if any single option isn't working, I have at least one other option to go places.
