While I'm not a fan of many of these things, it locked behind a one time fee is better than these subscription models many are coming out with.

I hate that you are right. How did we manage to fuck up heated seats. It’s literally just supposed to keep our asses warm. This ain’t some complex software intensive thing like navigation

Pay 19.95 per month for your brakes to work!

For no extra charge, you get standard braking ability.

For emergency braking, you can either pay $19.95/month OR $49.99 per occurrence!

Nah fuck that. If you buy a car and have to pay extra to "unlock" features it's a scam, you've now paid for that part twice. They've already baked the hardware cost into manufacturing, requiring the customer to pay to unlock is nothing but a cherry on top.

That's just paying a little more for your car when you buy it, not as a dlc.

Unless you couldn't afford the fancy features and later could, or move somewhere colder from somewhere warm, but all the pieces are already there and built.
